Commentary
All ground floor properties (2, 4, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22 and 32/34 Robert Street) were built as shops but they lost out to the High Street and many were soon used as houses. There were 2 groups of houses on the two upper floors - 6, 8, 10 & 12 were accessed by a close and 24, 26, 28 & 30 were accessed by another close. (All numbers refer to 1967 numbering.)
On this whole plot there have been 3 generations of buildings.
1. Built from the 1830s on, a house, Tay Cottage, on Tay Street, a house further up Robert Street, in front of Turnbulls' workshop on Union Street. Tay Cottage was demolished in 1876, the workshop in late 1877.
2. Built in 1877, the Royal Hotel on Tay Street, and a row of shops with houses above running up Robert Street and round into Union Street (the last bit built 1878). The whole block was known as Royal Buildings. They were all demolished in 1971-2.
3. Built in 1973-4, the existing Royal Buildings.
