Statement of Interest

This pair of houses and those at nos 11 and 13 Station Crescent were built as a speculation by William Gauldie and others, Gauldie himself living at no 7. This garden suburb style proved to be the prototype for similar houses with slight variations at 16 Station Road/2, 4 and

6 Station Crescent (1924-5) and 12 and 14 Station Road (1927-8) listed below. There are also similar houses listed in Broughty Ferry at 7, 9, 11 and 13 Norrie Street (1927), 47 and 49, and 51 and 53 Monifieth Road (1930).
