Overgate Centre

The Overgate Centre is a shopping centre in Dundee, Scotland. Built in the 1960s to replace buildings erected in the 18th and 19th centuries, most of the original structure (e.g. the Angus Hotel) was demolished and redeveloped from 1998 to 2000. The centre reopened as a fully enclosed shopping mall in 2000 and follows the same basic layout as the 1960s structure. Two levels of retail units are enclosed by a long curved glass elevation looking out to the historic City Churches where a pedestrian precinct remains. It houses over 60 shops, cafes and restaurants as well as three car parks, two being multi-storey. The flagship stores are Frasers, which is the only store that spans three floors, situated at the west end, and Primark at the opposite end. City House, a ten-storey office building, is located within the Overgate Centre itself and remains from the original 1960s centre. It overlooks the pedestrianised City Square and historic Caird Hall. City House was home to the Dundee offices of Curtis Banks, but as of May 2018 it has been empty and plans to demolish it have been pushed back repeatedly.

Steeple Church

The Steeple Church occupies the western part of the historic "City Churches" building in Dundee, Scotland. It is a congregation of the Church of Scotland. The "City Churches" are located in the city centre, adjacent to the Overgate shopping centre. The building is unusual as having two congregations within the same structure – the other congregation (at the eastern end) is Dundee Parish Church (St Mary's). The middle building ceased functioning as a place of worship in the early 1990s. St Mary's Tower, the clock tower at the western end of the City Churches, is the oldest part of the church, and is currently operated by Dundee City Council's heritage department and is commonly referred to as the Old Steeple by locals. During the war between Scotland and England known as the Rough Wooing, Dundee and Broughty Castle were occupied by English forces. In January 1548, an English commander, Thomas Wyndham placed a garrison of 20 "tall men" in the steeple, with the help of Andrew Dudley and the Scottish Lord Gray. Their armaments included cannon described as "a saker and a falcon and four double bases" and small guns called "hackbuts of crook".
