South Ward Road, Dundee

The building on the right at the end of the road with the flag pole and balustraded tower is Ward Mills/Friarfiled House. It is the curved office block built in 1873 for Don Brothers, Buist & Co. Raw jute warehouses still line the north side of South Ward Road but the two spinning mills were demolished in 1964. The building is really pleasing from the other side but I foolishly didn't go the end of the road to get a view. The problem of being on a tight schedule.
