The Borders Distillery, Hawick, Scotland.
Gray Macpherson Architects were appointed by The Three Stills Company Ltd in November 2015 to design The Borders Distillery in Hawick. This will be the first distillery in the Scottish Borders since 1837.
It is located in a Grade C listed building, built in around 1900 to house the Hawick Urban Electric Company. The administration buildings with street frontage and views over the river Teviot will provide a strong presence for the Distillery Headquarters and Visitor’s Centre.
