Main Street, Alexandria
I had hoped to get a better view of the artwork in the left foreground, but the grey car parked in front made that impossible. The red sandstone buildings themselves were originally called Mulberry Bank, and they date from 1887.
The location is at the corner of Main Street and Arthur Street. The red sandstone buildings continue to the north, becoming progressively older: those on the other side (north) of Arthur Street date from 1885; Dalmary Place dates from 1884; north of Albert Street is Plane Tree Bank (undated).

A new mural on the Old Vale Bar
The bar is at the corner of Main Street and Albert Street, and the art is by Barry the Cat. I am grateful to the person from the bar who took the time to explain the details to me on the day.
The mural was painted in such a way as not to clash with the existing colour scheme of the bar. Among the local worthies, past and recent, commemorated in it are Tobias Smollett, at the lower-left corner (Image / Image), and Skeets Gallacher, at the far right (Image).
Long ago, a horse could put its head through a hatch in the side of the building to feed from a bucket; the artwork alludes to this. That hatch is now a window (appropriately, the one with the horse painted around it).
