Jonathan Bucks writes for St Andrews’ The Saint on a former student accommodation block which has been converted into multi-million pound flats:

For St Andrews students still without a home for the coming year, fear not. The recently refurbished Hamilton Grand apartments are currently up for sale, towering above the Royal and Ancient club house and offering “the best view in golf”.
