History

The Archibald Simpson is a Wetherspoon pub in Aberdeen, Scotland, housed in a former bank building. The building was originally the North of Scotland Bank, designed by Archibald Simpson, the Architect of Aberdeen. The former site of the New Inn pub and neighbouring properties on King Street were bought in July 1838, and the foundation stone for the present building was laid on 20 January 1840. The building served as head offices for the North of Scotland Banking Company, established by Sir Alexander Anderson in Broad Street, Aberdeen in 1836. It is now a Wetherspoon pub.
