I don't think it would have been a shop - in 1901 there are 8 separate families living at 27 High Street, Linlithgow.

Linlithgow is very close to where I live, High Street is indeed a shopping street and this address could very well have been a shop. and may still be so. I will have a look for you and take a photo.
