• 108 Hope Street

  

  108 Hope Street, also known as Scottish Temperance League Offices, is hidden amongst taller buildings that surround it. Built just before the 1900 it displays lavish stonework decorative design, it stands alone with no other building joined to it. Now hosts a cafe on the ground floor.
