The 'Pair Hoose' or Almshouse at Bridgend
Duns Buildings and LandmarksDuration:
Two long time residents in Duns, John Fortune and Anne McNeil, remember the 'Pair Hoose'. The building has now gone thought the site at the bottom of Bridgend will be remembered by many. The page being shown is the Census register which lists Mrs. Dippie as being the Matron of the 'Almshouse' There were possibly more than one of these hostels and if you know of one in Gourlays Wynd or any others it would be interesting to hear of them.
