WHITIE'S


This impressive facade was added to the building in 1886 by a gentleman by the name of Turnbull, a local builder of the time.

If you look at the front of the building above the first floor left hand windows you will see a representation of a bull turned to look up the High Street - Turnbull!

As you can see all the windows to the front still have their original stained glass which adds another distinct flavour to the style of the building. To the rear of the building you have a clear view of the river and the town and hills beyond.

Internally we still have the incredibly intricate cornicing in both the sitting room and the dining room alongside the original "lincrusta" dado papers.

The dark stained wood work is also another great feature of this truly amazing building.
