More about this scene
We are looking up from the Dundas Street junction. Few residents have cars. The terrace on the left replaced Bowes Hall, a medieval mansion, in 1787. Robert Willance lived in the whitewashed house with large chimneystack on the right (Willance miraculously survived when in 1606 his horse bolted and fell 200 feet). In the centre are two fine Georgian town houses, and St Agatha's, the High School for Girls until 1939.
