A site awaiting redevelopment, some of it is taken up by the Pitkerro Care Centre. This has long been an industrial area, using dams along the Dighty Burn as an energy resource. The main industry was bleaching and this location is called Dundee Bleachfields on older maps. It was well developed by 1850.
