The home and workspace of two legendary, former Sanquhar butchers is up for sale.

John and William Forsyth took over the Forsyth's butchers, on High Street, which had been in the family since 1936. 

Having amassed over 100 years of services in the business, the brothers retired last month, leading to locals of Sanquhar to line the streets to pay their respects.
