Dundee Directory LOCAL HISTORY Coo 5^a sssx: : THE DUNDEE DIRECTORY 1850, CAREFULLY COMPILED FROM ACTUAL SURVEY AND THE BEST> SOURCES OF INFORMATION. DUNDEE •TAMES CHALMEES, 10 CASTLE STEEET. DUSDKE : JAMES CHALMEBS, PRINTER, CASTLE STSEBT. PREFACE. In preparing the present volume, the Publisher's aim has been to attain the greatest accuracy and extent of useful local information, of which such a Work is capable. To that end, the Town of Dundee and its neighboiu'hood, as well as the villages of Broughty Ferry and Lochee, have been carefully surveyed by competent persons ; and a correct Eoll of all the principal inhabitants, with their occupations and places of business and residence, has been obtained, and afterwards compared with the Police Lists. Prospective changes have been noted, as far as they could be ascertained, by enquiries and advertisements inviting such information. Notwithstanding every care and precaution, it cannot but be expected, in a work of this kind, that a few inaccuracies may have occurred ; and, on this subject, the Publisher con- siders that it is only justice to himself and the parties he employed, to say, that portions of some of the streets have been found inconsistently numbered, which, in a few cases, will cause partial discrepancies. However, he has the satis- faction to believe, that, for all practical purposes, this im- portant part of the Directory will be found quite unob- jectionable. The Publisher has much contidence in referring to the other Lists and subjects of information of which the volume is composed. They have all been obtained from the best sources, and revised with the greatest care. Since they Avere obtained and printed, a few changes, not aiFecting their utility, have occurred, which are stated in the note of corrections as IV. PREFACE. fai- as they could be ascertained. He embraces this oppor- tunity of expressing his grateful thanks to those gentlemen who have so kindly and freely afforded him the necessary information for the compilation of these varied Lists. On the whole, the Publisher trusts that the Dundee Directory will be found a very complete and useful book of reference. |It has been his object to render it so, for which purpose neither trouble nor expense have been spared. Its publication has been delayed rather longer than he at tirst calculated upon, owing to the unavoidable expenditure of time and labour which has been found necessary ; and he ventures to hope, that it will meet with such approbation as will induce a future publication when it becomes requisite. To his advertising friends, the Publisher begs to return his best thanks. He has been amply and liberally patronised in that department, and sincerely hopes that the objects de- sired will in all cases be fully realised. 10 Castle Street, Dundee, 12th April, 1850. —— CONTENTS.

Every location has its p s e own part to play in making Dundee’s m r o r d f special sense of place. e c r u o l s a i r There can be few cities in the world e t a which can boast their own unique form s m n i a t of tree. Dundee is privileged in this n o n c respect to have the Camperdown Elm, o i t a c i now widely grown around the world as l b u a cultivar. This, along with the rest of s p i h n t Dundee’s rich green legacy, is something i r e p of which Dundonians should be a e p h justifiably proud.

  • Broughty Ferry Environmental Project and Dightyconnect: a Summer of Stories
    People and nature: learning through doing Action research programme Broughty Ferry Environmental Project and DightyConnect: A Summer of Stories March 2011 ‘The story stick and the storyteller’ People and nature: learning through doing was an action research programme which aimed to identify successful approaches to involving people from excluded and disadvantaged groups in enjoying, learning about and caring for nature. Action research is often defined as research done of and by a particular group of people, rather than on and to them – with the aim of increasing understanding and achieving change. Six community and voluntary sector groups took part in the programme, each undertaking their own action research project to explore what could help people from a range of backgrounds and circumstances to get closer to nature – and the benefits they experienced when they did. The programme was supported by Scottish Natural Heritage and Scottish Community Development Centre and ran from Autumn 2009 until Spring 2011.
