Lockhart Place was built in 1879 by the Hawick Working Mens’ Building & Investment Company, who also erected most of the terraced housing at the Wellogate.
It is named after William Elliot-Lockhart II (1833-1907) of Borthwickbrae, who was Chamberlain to the Duke of Buccleuch at Branxholme between 1876 and 1892. Number 9 is a category C-listed building, being described as “of local importance.”
