Aberdeen - Park Street
The Granite City is not so granite today. The granite tenements in Summerfield Terrace above contrast with the modern flats further along Park Street.
The bus, a First Aberdeen single-decker on "The Brown Line", is following the traditional No. 11 route from Linksfield to Seafield.

Constitution Street
Interesting mix of granite bungalows and tenements in the east end of Aberdeen. In the distance are modern (non-granite) luxury flats by the beach, built by Stewart Milne.

The Saltoun Arms, Frederick Street, Aberdeen
A definite survivor, as most of the adjacent granite housing has been cleared to make way for the ring-road. It is presumably named for the Saltoun peerage (se: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord_Saltoun ) but the Aberdeen connection is not known.

Beach Boulevard, Aberdeen (approximate site of Albion Street Congregational Church)
This important link from the inner ring-road to the beach was carved out in the 1960s as part of slum-clearance efforts. So far as I can tell, the famous(?) Albion Street Congregational Church was located somewhere near the traffic island seen here. Supported by Queen Victoria who donated £20, Albion Street pioneered spiritual and moral "outreach" to working class slums in Aberdeen and was built on the site of a notorious "theatre." According to Gammie (The Churches of Aberdeen, publ. 1909 and available on-line): "The district had acquired an unenviable reputation for fostering the lowest forms of vice, and the unchecked ruffianism of its inhabitants was so pronounced that it was regarded as unsafe for any respectable citizen to venture unprotected within its confines." For its history, see Religion and Social Class (the Disruption Years in Aberdeen) by MacLaren. For more, see: http://www.mcjazz.f2s.com/Education.htm .
