LOCATION The subjects are located on the west side of the Main Street just to the north of the junction with Bank Street. The surrounding properties contain mainly retail uses at ground floor with residential above. The former “Kippen Dairy” site opposite the subjects has been developed to provide 55 new social rented houses which has greatly improved the appearance of the surrounding area.

The property was last used as an office but retains the residential characteristics of its original use as a flat.
