Fascinating tour of an old mill with tricky disabled access

Verdant Works is a fascinating look back at the history of Dundee's jute industry. There's plenty of space to move around but the disabled access isn't great, mostly due to the old building and the limitations within that. The efforts made have been good and the staff were very helpful and very friendly, offering to assist and offering private tours to groups or individuals upon request, either in advance or on the day.

Interesting jute museum

Verdant Works was probably the highlight of our trip to Dundee. It tells the fascinating story of jute and mills in Dundee. One volunteer called Lily shared her experiences of working in the mill when she was a young girl - amazing! Overall access is fairly good, although it is an old building and bumpy in places.
