West Ferry 'mansion'
Victorian mansions such as this one are typical of much of West Ferry. They were built during the hey day of the jute industry in Dundee which brought considerable prosperity to the city. History records that in 1900 there were more millionaires living in West Ferry than in any other square mile of the British Empire. Today many of the large houses have been flatted and modern infill building has slightly increased population densities.

Albert Road
This road is fairly typical of Broughty Ferry, where in the 19th century the prosperous merchants of Dundee built their mansions, surrounded by leafy gardens and usually stone walls to keep out prying eyes, though Albert Road does now have some more modern housing developments. No prizes for guessing whom the street was named after, of course; Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, consort of Queen Victoria.

Albert Gardens
This is the view in the opposite direction from Image], and I think it is much more attractive in this direction. Albert Gardens is almost the epitome of quiet suburbia - a development of two dozen matching bungalows in a cul-de-sac off a quiet street. It stands on the site of a typical Broughty Ferry Victorian mansion which was demolished in the mid-20th century.
