Here is a
view of
St
Andrew Square, before the monument to Melville had been
erected in the centre of the square.
Leading
into the square from the west is
George
Street, with
St Andrew's
church on the north side of the street and the
Physicians'
Hall.
On the
eastern side of the square is the Excise Office, later to become
Head Office of the
Royal
Bank of Scotland. the lettering in front of the
buildings on either side of the Excise Office on the eastern side
of the square reads:
- TO THE NORTH: Royal Bank
- TO THE SOUTH: British Linen Company Bank |
