A Regency villa and the first calender in the city (1822, for applying a glaze to linen cloth). A true vertical steam engine has left the trace of its flywheel in a wall. Both buildings were conserved as a training centre for the charity Helm by Tayside Building Preservation Trust in 1996. A hydraulic lift, operated from the water mains was made operational by Heritage Engineering as part of the project.
