Magdalen Yard Road, Dundee - Ref: WC0347
This photograph shows the section of Magdalen Yard Road to the east of Bellefield Avenue, with Magdalen Green in the foreground.
The building set back from the road is "The Vine", which stood in grounds adjacent to Bellfield House [sic], which is listed in later issues of the Dundee Directory as belonging to Miss Barrie.
David M Walker's 'Architects and architecture in Dundee 1770-1814' says the 'strange Egypto-Greek "Vine" [was] built in 1836 for George Duncan, a private art gallery with a few rooms contrived in it for the owner. The architect is unknown'.
