This fascinating selection of photographs traces some of the many ways in which Broughty Ferry has changed and developed over the last century.
Broughty Ferry has gone through many changes since its origins as a small fishing village nestled in the shadow of a fifteenth-century castle. The industrial age saw wealthy jute barons arrive and build their grand residences there, while the coming of the train saw the town become a popular destination for holidaymakers. The twentieth century and beyond has seen Broughty Ferry evolve into a popular and affluent suburb.
This compilation of images follows Broughty Ferry through all of these changes and shows how, despite officially becoming part of Dundee in 1913, ‘the Ferry’ has always maintained an independent air.
