Meldrum was a founder member of the Banff Preservation Society in 1965. In 1975 Meldrum took Henry (Harry) Mantell into partnership, the name then becoming Meldrum & Mantell. Meldrum retired in 1987 and died in 1990. The practice was awarded an Architectural Heritage Year Award and a Saltire Society Award in 1975 and a Civic Trust Award in 1978.
