Dock Street, Dundee

This photograph shows the western part of Dundee's commodities area, with Dock Street leading westwadrs to the Caledonian Railway's Dundee East Station to the left and the Greenmarket in the right foreground.

The Weigh House belonged to James Cowan & Sons, one of several slat merchants from that family. The tops of the buildings visible beyond that are in Whitehall Crescent.

The rear of Gilfillan Memorial Church is the imposing edifice to the left of the 'public warehouse', built in 1758, with Henry Cowan's salt store, a fruiterer's business belonging to James Brough, and another salt store belonging to Mrs William Brown.
