Yes it was on Janet Street. I searched the British Newspaper Archive website and there are a number of mentions. I found an advert in the John O'Groat Journal 1884:
Thorfynn House
Boarding & Day School for Young Ladies conducted by Mrs and The Misses Russell.
Also spotted it up for sale in 1889.
Hope that helps.
