Narrowing of Montrose High Street at the Guildhall, Angus
The first municipal building in Montrose was a medieval tolbooth which stood where the statue of Sir Robert Peel now stands. One of its main functions was as a prison but it was demolished in 1835. In the mid-18th century, the burgh leaders decided that a new municipal building was needed and this was completed in 1793 with further extensions in 1819/20. Whether or not it was intended, one consequence of building the Guildhall at its High Street site was to narrow the High Street at that location. Montrose may have the widest High Street in Scotland but it is narrowed at the northern end where there was the medieval gate of the North Port and it is narrowed towards the south by the Guildhall.
