JS Crawford Builders was founded by James Smith Crawford. He was a stone mason by trade and before the second world war had worked on the renovation of the Scotsman Building in Edinburgh and the Gates at Floors Castle, Kelso in the Scottish Borders. On his return from wartime duties he established the firm as a building contractor operating from a bay in the old slaughterhouse in Annay Road, Melrose.
One of his earliest contracts was the building of the turnstiles at the main entrance to Melrose Rugby Club where he himself had played with some considerable distinction. This was a very convenient contract considering his earliest mode of transport was a push bike. Post war materials were rationed, and it was tough for the firm in its infancy, but the firm started to win contracts and build new houses.
