Gardyne’s Land is a complex of five historic buildings in the High Street of Dundee. At the heart of the site is a tower house, the only surviving example of a 16th century Merchant’s House in the city. The property has been restored and is now a backpackers’ hostel. The top floor of the 1640 tenement building has evidence of use by former inhabitants including W Fergus, Watchmaker, and McLeod, Bagpipe Maker.
