11 September 2014: External inspection finds the building with dampness evident to the front elevation, presumably emainating from an internal rainwater pipe. This is manifesting as a strip of very damp stonework adjacent to the boundary with 54 High Street with copious quantities of weeds on and around it as well as at cornice and window cill levels. The building is disused with the retail unit being marketed for lease through agents Graham Sibbald.

13 February 2015: The retail unit and 1st floor remain under marketing for lease.

28 August 2018: A member of the public notes there appear to have been improvement works to the facade carried out, notably the removal of vegetation and re-painting of the shopfront.
