View from Anchor Lane, Dundee
At this point I ran out of time to explore further and had to dive into Verdant Works to achieve my main objective of the day - an 1801 Boulton & Watt beam engine. So I had to content myself with this tantalising shot that I have just spent a good 15 minutes locating accurately. The multistorey block in the left background is part of Logie Works built 1828-33 and was converted to housing in the 1990s. It sounds fascinating with a coffin shaped courtyard and two beam engine houses. The decaying mill buildings in the right background are part of Queen Victoria Works that were still spinning jute until 1995. The aerial view shows severe deterioration. Dundee has a mass of industrial archaeology that I barely scratched the surface of. It would take a good week to do the place justice.

Verdant Mill Museum
Verdant Mill got its name because when it was built it was in green fields. Now 170 years on it is surrounded by other converted mills and warehouses. In 1991 it was made into a museum showing how Jute was processed and its many uses.
