The next building was one of the
places which helped to make the Pans famous — Mellis's Soap Works

At the bottom of Rose Mount we had

memories of the old shops on the Pans High Street must come to
a close and make room for the new. But some of these names will
always be remembered when the name of Prestonpans is mentioned.
