Perth Road, Dundee - Ref: WC0529
This elegant building is sited on the north side of Dundee's Perth Road and is part of Dundee University in the present day. The road to the right (and east), Hawkhill Place, is no longer extant.
The taller building is called Hermonhill, the smaller houses to the left Hermonhill Terrace. The terrace was built in c.1891, Hermonhill itself (listed in the Dundee Directory as Nos. 21-27 Perth Road) in c.1887.
Hermonhill House stood slightly back from the Perth Road. George H. Gibb, the town postmaster, lived there for several years. Residents of Hermonhill included solicitors, merchants and professionals.
