Dr Thomas Stewart, "Docy Tom", succeeded his father Dr John Stewart as Newport's general practitioner. He lived and worked at Lovaine on Cupar Road, and was assisted by the apparently rather flamboyant Dr Montague Rust.
The general practice surgery was at the rear of the building, entered through the back yard.
