of building materials and local styles are less well-defined from the '1850s onwards: Dumlriesshire red sandslones and Welsh slate are found by the end of lhe century Flashings are of lead, later zinc, and rainwater goods lrom the late 18th century onwards are ot cast iron. Houses: Most'houses'are in lact tenements: blocks of several "room and kitchen" houses reached Irom deck access "platties" via free- standing stair towers, to which toilets might be added, or via internalstairs. This might even applyto terraced coltages wilh attic spaces. Some over-sized cottages held handlooms but more ot these were concentrated in ground floors ol factories, the upper floors being louvred warping/ starching lofts. Single storey loom shops are easily altered bul those in two storey houses are recognisable, e.g. the many ground floor4-loom shops in Kirriemuir. Some inter-war council houses are 4-in a block with an entrance in each elevation. The 1960s "f,lulti's", hi-rise that characterise Dundee's skyline, are programmed to be demolished, and severalare already down. Farming is mixed arable, with fruit larms on the Carse of Gowrie and around Bla rgowrie. [,1ost larms are products of agricultural improvement, and those that predate the threshing machine are otten distinguishable by horse mills, with conical roofs in Angus and Perthshire, oclagonal panllled roofs in Fife, and sometimes windmills or chimneys for steam engines, wh le ihose lhat post-date 1790 might be sited lrom the siartio explo t waterpower. Wheels lor threshing mils m ght be in verydeep pits, the lade and tailrace both culverted Steadings usually form three sides olasquare, sometimeswith roofed cattle courts. A C17th-18th farmhouse might lace into lhat court, a Clgth one would lront it or stand apart. Pre-improvement Ferm Touns are mostly archaeological bumps in the landscape, with conical depressions lett by drain-drying kilns, but Rait, Perthshire, is a rare example that has survived. Graln mllls: Scott sh corn mllls had the benelit of lhirlage until 1799, requiring lenants to take their oals and barley to specific mills. Many mills bear 18th century or earlier dates, but the machinery is usually from the later 1gth century Only a few timber wheels survive indoors. A characteristic element is the k ln that dried oals or barley beiore grinding, lending to be more archilecturally dominant further nodh. Semi-ckcular kilns are lound in Angus. Two pairs of stones were often enough but l/illon Mill, Monilieth had 12, helped by a steam engine, and Mountgarie Mill, Aberdeenshtre has 5 pairs still in operalion. As the slones and gearing are olten galhered at a gable ol lhe mill, it has been possible to keep these in some conversions. Water is conveyed to a mill in a lade (leat) lrom a cauld (weir). Single ring "start and 'awe" paddle wheels are otten lound in the north east. No fully complete windmills survive in mainland Scolland, but some towers exist, otten adapted to doocots (dovecotes). Texlile industry: the first large-scale industrial sites were bleachfields north of Perth and Dundee. They had extensive sloping fields on which the linen cloth was laid to bleach Walerpower was used for scutching (prelim nary stage in llax manulacture) and beetling (wooden hammers on cloth). Flax 2 spinning was inkoduced in 1 787 into pre-existing mills. ln that industry 'the Mill' was for spinning, 'the laclory'for producing manufaclured cloth, whether by hand or powered processes and was ollen Hotse mills powercd theshing machines at mosl fams- ln Angus and Penhshirc they typic al ly arc circular wilh snall slates at lhe lop, lhe rcol -,-- sttucture fanning oul ol - matry splil spals- Scotch s/ate ,s flxed to sarking boards (seen herc) allowing very sma//s/ale to be used.

Engineering passed lrom the vilage sm ddy to the foundry, a term usualiy applied not just to the casl ing ol meta but also to the making of machinery. Steam eng nes were being made locally from c1810. Dundee pioneered locomotlve engineering in Scotland, and those lrained there went on to develop that industry in [,4ontreal Swindon and Doncaster. But once a rail conneclion was achieved to Glasgow in 1850 that nduslry stopped Branches took up shipbuilding and some small towns could develop niche products, Like Auchtermuchty and weighing machines, F6 Cupar and pumps/ milestones see table, on next page, lor fertile machinery manufacturcrs. Transport: Water: Unti 1B50lhe best way to move about was by sea up and down the coasl as well as across rivers. There are no canals lor transport in the region covered here ln 1836 there was almost as much horse power deployed in Dundee's steam navigation fleet as there was in the c ty's spinning 3 mllls. Passenger lranspod io London by last overnight steamers run by the 'DP&L' (Dundee, Pe(h & London), launched in the Caledon yard in the 1880s, still competed against lail travel.

Previously, the main bridge builders had been b shops Drove roads make inleresting paths through the highland glens, as do the Military Roads through Perthshire, and Cairn O' Mount in Kincardineshire. A lamily ol blacksmiths, John Justice (senior and junio0, has lelt an intriguing legacy of wrought iron stayed bridges in Glen lsla (AN1) Haughs of Drimmie, Perthshke, Crathie, Aberdeensh re and probaby the Loups at the Burn (M2) and Lintrathen (D16, arched). They show the evo ution of an indigenous solution to challenges by an untutored but exceptional blacksmiih There are some cast-rron bridges, but not as many as in Aberdeensh re. The most interesting ol the 20th century bridges were Montrose (AN38) and the Tay Road Bridge (DD3). Railways: The pioneer here is the Dundee & NeMyie (DG2), iirst planned in 1825. lt and other early roules were not seen as forming one network, so they mighl come to a hali in odd p aces, or take routes as f they were part oi the road network (hence the severing to this day oi Coupar Angus in two, 4 as new roads took lhe railway line) Level crossing houses of 1838-1849 look a lot like toll houses, and the eadiest station proper is probably Broughty Ferry (1838, DG18) Railway workshops are relatively small-scaled at Ladybank, Fife (F10). The Tay Bridge (DW15) is slupendous, and olher bridges can't compare, many oi those on the Aberdeen Railway having been replaced as they orig naly were ol timber laminated arches (|vl10 and M20). Sgrvices: Water is usually delivered n Scolland by gravity. There are no preserved sleam pumping engines in Scotland. But lhere are dams, two stone aqueducts leading into Dundee and waler towers exist at Montrose, AN44, Arbroalh AR4, Ladybank, F'l'!, and Menzieshill, DWo. Gas supply: litlle evidence is lett aparl from some rural spinning mills, AN21, a big gas holder in Dundee and pa(s of retort houses in Aberfeldy and Kirriemuir, beside AN7, for example. Electrlclty was generated in small-scale ways from water power and several country houses had their own power stations by 1930. The trams converted to electricity in c1900, and the first all-electric iute mill (self-generated) was Hillbank Works in Dundee, 1907 (at centre of aerial photo at DE3). First and second generation coal-fired power stalions no longer exisl, and the post-war hydro power schemes that make local energy use relatively carbon-neutral are further north and west in Perthshire and beyond. Wind lurbines tower over the N,lichelin tyre faclory in Dundee, near DG14, where they somehow lit rather well.

Medieval Dundee had its slreet layout cut through in lhe 1870s-1880s by a scheme ot slum clearance to create Commercial Street, Whilehall Place and Crescent. This consisted of uniform French-style tenements over tall casl iron columns and bressumers to shop fronts, given ditlerent kinds of a flour- ish by eye-catcher corner towers. Destruction in 1930 of the Town House and redevelopment in the 1960s oi Wellgate and Overgate help explain current favourable attitudes towards conservation of what is left in the city Of the eight spinning mills within the area, on the west and norlhern fringes, lust one survives. Chap- elshade Works of Bell and Balfour (No 40087 30593) was where jute was tried and is appropriately where Abertay tJniversity slands today. Formerly Dundee College ol Technology, it provided kaining world-over in jute technology. Of live calenders for finishing cloth cluslered in the SE corner between the commercial district and the docks, two survive, sympathetically converted, and just one of lhe lanes where raw jute was slored and previously whale oil was processed (East Whale Lane). Of lour whislry bonds, on the other hand, three survive in a cluster at Seagate. Another group ol warehouses were for iron wholesalers around Exchange Streel. Electric power all labric of the lirst and second generation power stations have gone. The city's first electric generators, steam engine-driven, were in 1899/1901 at the tram depot north of the Police HQ, L4arkelgait, prevrously a prison. They had a tall chimney A network for hydraulic power is found in warehouses near the docks, latterly at leasl operated by mains water pressure.

ln memory of EricWatt, teacher, photographerand treasurer ofthe Scottish lndustrial Heritage Society. Some of the photos that he bequeathed to SIHS embellish this book Unless otherwise slated, pictures are by the author, several of them taken in the course of work at Historic Scotland. The yellow artist's perspeclives derive lrom a booklet ior Low and Bonar Ltd, drawn c1950 by an art sludent in return ior all lhe art canvas he needed while pursuing his studies; David [y' Walker went on to become Ch el lnspector of Historic Buildings in H storic Scotland, and ensured that many of the key buildings n the area were statutorily I sted, and in some cases, conserved and re'used. The aulhor, also Dundonian, endeavoured to keep up that work aong with the local authorities concerned. (20textile mills are now in a housing use ln Dundee, and five in Angus.) Thank you to John Hume for achieving the delinitive baseline across Scotland, 1976-7, to Jim Wood whose S/xy Sites (AlA, 1985) and John Crompton, Fotlh and Clyde (AlA, 2002) who drew on that, and to Roland Paxton and the PHEW team for therr work on civil engineering lor lCE. For their advice, thanks 1o [.4iles Oglelhorpe and colleagues in Historic Scotland, Gill Poulte( Dundee Herilage Trust, many members of STICK (Scoltish lndustrial and nansport Collections Knowledge Network) and, for shared research on flax spinners, Peter Solar. For intormation, to Douglas Spears (Fife Council), Peter Verity (suspension bridges) and John Brand (Largo) For joining the fieldwork, Russel Coleman and Dave Bates (SIHS), Karen Thomson, Linda Ross, Jenn Reid and Rowan Brown (STICK), Colin and Paula Martin (Easl Neuk, tor which we ran out ol space), Paul Mitchell, Margaret King and Sarah Kettles (Angus Council), Ne I Grieve and the researches ol sludents in Urban European Conserva- tion (Dundee University).
