Architect James Graham Fairley was born in 1846 at West Calder, the eldest son of William Fairley, millwright and engineer, and his wife Elizabeth Graham. He was educated at Edinburgh Academy and his training commenced with four years of practical building experience in his father's business. His practice was primarily West Lothian and Dundee-based, but he also had connections in the United States where he designed two very large houses. (Dictionary of Scottish Architects)
