Note (1876)
Established in 1876 by Mrs Margaret Wills of Dudhope Brewery (to its rear, in the line of the ring road), it was designed to form part of an Improvement Act Street.
Brewing ceased before 1914 and the 5-storey tower brewery became a tenement. The wort coppers were on the second and third floors; the cooler was above two arched windows to their left, what is now the Ladywell Tavern.
