Waverley Temperance Hotel

The NFU Mutual office used to be a hotel, the Waverley, built by The Dunlop Trust in the late 19th century as an establishment where no alcohol was served. The elevation that faces Market Square has the words 'Dunlop Trust' carved on a stone in the centre at eaves level.

Dunlop was a local draper who left the property to Duns Town Council on instruction that the income be used to support local widows.
