[Situation] On the South Side of Broughty Ferry Road
This name applies to an irregular group of houses on the south side of Broughty Ferry Road. There was at this place formerly a small port or bay where vessels of light tonnage could be moored to which the name then applied but since the construction of the Dunde & Arbroath Railway which enclosed this port it is gradually being filled up, and is now almost dry land, so the name applies now not to a port but to the site and land and houses adjoining and more particularly to the above[me]ntioned houses. |
