    Location

    Roxburgh Street is situated to the north of Kelso Town Centre.

    Kelso is a traditional market town, with a relatively affluent catchment area

    providing a higher than average disposable income supporting a good range of

    independent traders.

    It is situated in a central position within the Scottish Borders approximately forty

    miles south of Edinburgh, around eighteen miles east of Galashiels. According to

    the 2019 Mid Year population estimate compiled by National Records of

    Scotland, Kelso has a population of 6,880, an increase of around 11% over that

    recorded at the 2001 Census (6,190).

    The town is considered an important local employment and retail centre serving

    a wide rural hinterland. It also benefits from a relatively strong tourism sector.

    Situation

    Roxburgh Street is a mixed-use area, predominantly characterised by commercial

    units to ground level with residential accommodation above.

    It is on the northern extremity of the town centre. The properties to the north of

    Roxburgh street are predominantly within residential use.

    Description

    A self-contained shop and a first floor office/storage unit.

    The units occupy part of a three-storey traditional terraced tenement building.

    The upper levels were converted into residential accommodation which has

    subsequently been sold off and is now in separate ownership. These ground floor

    units were created in around 1997, following the redevelopment and sub-division

    of the former Lothian and Borders Co-operative Society premises.

    The front section of the building is of traditional stone construction, with

    rendered finishes under pitched roofs clad in slate incorporating a standing

    seam metal finish to the central section of some of the buildings. There are a

    number of render faced cavity extensions to the rear predominantly with flat

    roofs finished in mineral felt.

    This is a Single fronted unit with display window to Roxburgh Street and off-set

    entrance door.

    21b occupies the first floor above the back shop of No. 21, this is again of

    rendered faced cavity construction under a flat roof finished in mineral felt.

    Rainwater goods predominantly comprise cast iron units. There are some PVC

    replacements/additions to the rear. The front elevation has a parapet wall head

    which appears to be capped in lead. A parapet gutter is presumed to be

    incorporated behind this.
