LOCHEE STATION (BURNS CLUB)

Old Muirtown Road

This station dates from 1861, built for the Dundee and Newtyle railway, a loop that bypassed the Law Hill tunnel and accessed Camperdown Works

via a skew arched bridge over Burnside Street.

Architect James Gowans adopted multiple types of stone artfully face-bedded into a projecting grid to a mathematical formula. Other examples of his work are in West Lothian and Edinburgh.

M watson, 2013
