Tay Works, Dundee
Built for jute spinning and carpet weaving between 1851 and 1865 for A R & G Gilroy. The main block is now student accommodation. The brick and concrete structure to the right is, I believe, the 1922 dyeworks.

Ward Foundry and mosque, Dundee
The Ward Foundry was established in 1810 by J & C Carmichael to manufacture steam engines. This shows the c1880 new boiler shop with its riveting tower. The foundry closed in 1929 and was subsequently used by D C Thomson for paper storage. It is now in mixed occupancy and includes a mosque in its midst.
This is a fascinating part of Dundee and I wish I had had more than the 2-3 hours I was allowed.
