29 September 2024

City Road Gardens Association manages the site of allotments at the junction of Pentland Avenue and City Road on the West side of Dundee. The site has 72 plots of various sizes which are rented to local residents and provides them with an area of land to grow their own fruit, vegetables and flowers. The site has a communal hut which members use to meet and hold events and a shop for the purchase of supplies of materials for growing plants and maintaining the plots. We have opportunities for other community groups to use the site for their own activities. Members hold an annual Open Day including a sale of produce, exhibitions and information from associated community groups and provide donations of surplus food and plants to local residents through the free food box at the main site gate.

One of his few works in Scotland, St Salvador’s was designed by one of Britain’s foremost Gothic Revival architects, G. F. Bodley in 1868. Glorious painted interior, one of the most significant of the 19th century Gothic Revival in Scotland. Stencilled decoration to the walls and ceiling, the splendour and richness increasing in the chancel and apse. The nave is predominantly green with cream above; the chancel a warm red and the reredos is rich with gold. The eye is drawn to the brightly coloured and gilded screen and beyond to the high altar and reredos. The magnificent panelled and painted reredos fills whole of the east wall and has a central figure of Christ crucified and 18 painted copper panels of the Apostles, Angels, the Virgin and St John with a painting of the Annunciation above. Organ by Wadsworth & Maskell, 1882, with an elaborate and richly carved and highly coloured case.
