Thornbush House
Situated adjacent to the former Thornbush Brewery, incredibly Thornbush House is neither listed or on the Buildings at Risk Register for Scotland.
Early pictures show that the building once supported a pair of fine dormer windows, that have at some stage been replaced by modern Velux type roof lights. The history of the building is unclear but thought to date from the early 19th century.
