  • Friends of Dundee Law Welcome Pack
    Friends of Dundee Law Welcome pack With its breath taking views across the city, historical features and tranquil woodland walks, the Law is a special place, treasured by Dundonians of all ages. The Dundee TWIG project agrees that the Law is a fantastic green space and feel that local people should have a greater involvement in what happens on the Law and play a vital role in its management and development. In order to help local people become more involved in positive action on the Law, we are looking to form a Friends of Dundee Law group. Anyone with an interest in the Law is welcome to join the group which will be supported by the Council’s Environment Department and Community Officers. To kick start the project, Forestry Commission Scotland have provided a grant through the Community Seedcorn Fund. This will support the group’s activities and events throughout the first year. Additionally, the Environment Department are currently putting together a Law Masterplan. This will contain an array of proposed environmental improvements i.e. path & steps restoration and woodland management, and also enhancing the heritage of the site for the public to enjoy. If after reading this welcome pack you would like to join the Friends of Dundee Law or are interested in finding out more please contact Jen Thomson. Contact details can be found on the back page of this pack . !n introduction to the Dundee Law The Dundee Law is a popular urban green space and prominent feature on the Dundee skyline.

  • The House at 4 the Esplanade
    THE HOUSE AT 4 THE ESPLANADE Introduction In the notes which follow I will try to set out something of the history of the house now known as 4 The Esplanade and its immediate environs: the ground identified on the Feuing Plan of Part of Broughty Ferry Links belonging to the Dundee and Arbroath Railway Company 1859. The Feuing of the Ground and the Building of the House at 1 and 2 Seward Place In 1872 the land on which 4 The Esplanade now stands was bought from the Scottish North Eastern Railway Company (SNER) by William Black and his wife Mary (nee Easton) who were then living across the water in Tayport. SNER was formed when the Aberdeen Railway Company amalgamated with the Scottish Midland Junction Railway Company on 29 July 1856. On 31 January 1862, the SNER took over the Dundee and Arbroath Railway; and the resultant company was absorbed by the Caledonian Railway on 10 August 1866. Feudal tenure, a system of land ownership with its roots in the 12th century, was an important part of land use planning in the nineteenth century. The most common form of feudal condition was the obligation to pay a sum of money annually to the superior: the feu duty. Other conditions could place constraints on the use of the land or buildings often in order to harmonise the appearance of a street or housing development. The land purchased by the Blacks formed part of some 12 acres of ground bought by SNER from the estate of David Hunter, 8 th Laird of Burnside who had laid out the plan for the New Town.
