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.

Former St Peter's RC Primary School, Constitution Street, Aberdeen
Dating from 1833, this former primary school is an early and interesting feature of Catholic emancipation in Aberdeen, following the 1829 relief Act: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Relief_Act_1829 . The street name is ironic, as it was apparently inspired by a speech by George III opposing Catholic emancipation. For more of the building's history, check its B-listing: http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/sc-20238-constitution-street-beach-court-care-home . It was derelict in the 1990s and converted into a care home.

The Scotia Bar, Summerfield Terrace
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).
