Could it be Heriot's Bridge?

You could try seraching old trade and post office directories. Go to https://auth.nls.uk/join/ (you don't need to register or join to look at the directories)

Click on Digital Resources > Digital Gallery > Scottish history and people > Scottish Post Office Directories > Browse and search

Thank you both - yes when I look at it again I can see Heriots! 

Also fits nicely where daughter is later in West Port.

Thanks again
