Andrew Pringle, Lord Alemore

Andrew Pringle, Lord Alemoor (died 1776) was a Scottish judge and Senator of the College of Justice.

Andrew Pringle passed the Scottish bar as an advocate in 1740 and became Sheriff of Wigtown in 1750.

His position as a Senator of the College of Justice was afterwards filled by David Ross, Lord Ankerville.

[2] In 1757 he commissioned John Adam to build him small but imposing villa on high ground northeast of Edinburgh close to Restalrig which he named Hawkhill House.

The house and eastern grounds were proposed to be added to existing recreational ground to the east, but despite protest from the Scottish Georgian Society from 1956 onwards the house was eventually demolished in 1966 and replaced by high-rise flats.
