Used to be the Cameronians Club, which closed a few years back. The trustees of the Cameronians donated the building to PoppyScotland.

Me and my mare Barrie might have been the last two folk to join the Cameronians Club. Never got my membership card...

And Youtube makes it a pain in the arse to embed videos. That took me longer than it should have.
