Step Row, Dundee
Looking up Step Row towards Perth Road running along the top. The "cobble" stone road surface is very hard wearing, but quite noisy when driven on. Popular area for student accommodation.

Speedwell Bar, Dundee
Despite the unassuming doorway this pub on Perth Road is something of an Edwardian gem inside and is well worth a visit.

McCheyne Memorial Church, Perth Road, Dundee
McCheyne Memorial was opened as a mission station of St Peter's Free Church, which is about 250 yards down the Perth Road (the right fork in this photo).
It was opened in 1870 by Charles Haddon Spurgeon, the noted Baptist minister.
In 1900 it became a United Free Church and in 1929 it united again and became part of the Church of Scotland. As a result of declining attendances, St Peter's and McCheyne were united to form St Peter’s McCheyne Memorial and the united congregation met in McCheyne Memorial.
In the late 1990s, that congregation had declined so much that it too linked with another linked congregation and they have moved to another building. The last service was held here on 20th September, 1999. Although there was a proposal to turn it into a themed pub in 2001, http://www.freechurch.org/issues/2001/nov01b.htm, the building was still for sale in 2008.

McCheyne Memorial Church, Dundee
McCheyne Church started in 1857. It was sanctioned as a Free Church in 1871 (Free as not within the established church). In 1868, money was being raised to build McCheyne Memorial Church - a Mission Church. Rev McCheyne was the first minister and preached for 24 years (http://photopolis.dundeecity.gov.uk/wc1428.htm Photopolis).
The church is situated at the Sinderins in Dundee, directly opposite the Blackness library on the corner of Perth Road and Shepherd's Loan. It is a tight site on a major junction. The muscular gothic church with steeple was built in 1870 and later (perhaps 1899) extended to the south in the same style.
The building has been empty since the church was merged in 1999 and the congregation moved to Dundee West Church in Roseangle. The last service to be held here was on 20th September, 1999. Before closure, it was also known as St Peter’s McCheyne Church, having combined with St Peter’s Church.
The former church is a Category A listed building (LB25603 http://portal.historicenvironment.scot/designation/LB25603 Historic Scotland). It is also on the Register of Buildings at Risk (HS Reference No 25603 http://www.buildingsatrisk.org.uk/details/895047 ).
