This is in original condition. Verdant Works was built in 1833 as a flax and jute spinning mill and is now a museum of the history of jute in Dundee. It is an excellent combination of social history and genuine artefacts from the trade with machinery representing each stage of the process and a preserved Boulton & Watt beam engine.
