Scotland’s Art Deco Heritage 33: Peebles. Addendum
Posted in Architecture, Art Deco, Cinemas at 12:00 on 23 July 2015
In August 2013 when I was in Peebles the former Playhouse Cinema looked a bit run down. (See here.)

We partook of the ice-cream from Caldwell’s shop/cafe just along the street. It was good.
On the High Street I noticed this Art Deco gate at the entrance to a close:-

We ventured down to the green by the River Tweed where there is this Pavilion:-

The reverse has slightly more deco style:-

On a back street the two Chambers brothers who later produced Chambers’s Dictionary (as it was known at first) were both born, in 1800 and 1802 respectively, as the plaque records.
