Incongruous single-storey bar in a street of 4-5 storey granite tenement buildings in Aberdeen. Note the railings and the basement flats ("sunks"). The street still has its granite cassies (setts).

Former Frederick Street School, Aberdeen
This spectacular listed building (see: http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/sc-50944-frederick-street-frederick-street-busines ) was erected in about 1905. Note the bars enclosing the roof playground (see: http://www.oldchap.f2s.com/aberdeen/LetsSeeSomePictures_Page196.html )
The school has closed and it now accommodates "aspirational" offices for Aberdeen City Council. Next door is/are "Devine Angels," the neighbourhood psychic.

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.

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.
