In 1827 the Royal Bank of Scotland employed Archibald Elliott to build their new premises, having sold the Cunninghame Mansion to the Royal Exchange, and David Hamilton was employed to transform the building, which is now The Gallery of Modern Art. The Bank then went on to develop Royal Exchange Square, creating one of Glasgow’s finest neo-classical set pieces. The building is now Borders Bookshop.
