Homes and walls in Dundee

We cover Dundee and nearby Forfar, Arbroath and Blairgowrie.

Tayside has stone tenements and terraces in the towns, harled cottages and post-war estates.

Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Dundee and Angus: sheltered town streets fare better than walls on high ground or facing the prevailing weather, and the render, beads and cill details are chosen with that in mind.
