An enhanced historic building survey was carried out at No.2 Heriot Way (Site 163) (NGR NT 40354 54582, Fig. 1) by CFA Archaeology Ltd (CFA) in July 2014. The work was undertaken as part of the Borders Railway Project the construction of which required the demolition of the building.

No 2 Heriot Way has been recorded via a historic building survey to an Enhanced specification and it comprises two main phases. The building is contemporary with the construction of the Waverly Railway line (Phase 1). It has been considerably modernised (Phase 2) that increased its interior layout with the addition of new bedrooms and a bathroom. The building was re-roofed prior to the 1970s and then later modified with the addition of a new chimney stack on the end of the west gable.
