Enough's enough
Hall Street was named after James Macalister Hall of killean in 1898 after his generous offer to build the Library and in 1900 Royal Avenue Mansions a massive four storey tenement block was built in Hall Street.
The dual carriageway is the type of road that passes along Hall Street.
Mafeking Place and Reform Square are on two seperate sides of Longrow.
When the Wide close was removed the new road was called Longrow South. To avoid having to re - number the whole of Longrow
Gus
Barochan Place is the name of the tenements built in Argyll Street on the site of the old militia barracks.
Hope that clears that up. Anything else boys just ask
Forgot to ask, Can I get a coffee too ?
