Bookies no more

Scotscoup on the High Street shuts its doors. Below the sign on the door a mosaic design on the floor hints of a long forgotten change in the life-cycle of these premises.

The recession is really biting when bookies close down!

I would be interested to hear - when did Greenlees and Sons operate from the premises? Were they a chain operation, and what did they sell or do there?
