Summary
| Description |
English: Penicuik Town Hall/Cowan Institute A bequest by Alexander Cowan, a local paper maker, eventually funded the erection of this handsome building in 1894. It was gifted by the trustees to Penicuik Town Council in 1960, when it was still known as the Cowan Institute and this name was carved in raised letters in the stone over the doorway until it was removed when the building was taken over by the then Midlothian District Council in 1974. While Midlothian Council still make some use of the building, it is now used most extensively by the Penicuik Community Development Trust and other local voluntary bodies. |
