- Description
- Supposedly a brass plaque- no other details known. The building ceased to function as a convalescent home in 1994 according to records of the home held by Dundee City Archives, with the last financial report being filed in 2003. The plaque may have been lost during conversion works. The house was sold by the Scottish Foresters in 2000, it is believed the plaque was given to two trustees of the convalescent home who have now both died. The organisation does not know what then happened to the plaque.
