Ninewells, Dundee — Area Guide & Where to Stay
Ninewells is a district of Dundee, its listed addresses running along Blackness Road and Perth Road and out into Invergowrie.
About Ninewells
Where to stay in Ninewells
The right area depends on your trip — here's what each neighbourhood is best for.
Ninewells reads as residential Dundee, where Redcroft on Blackness Road and Inniscarra on Perth Road are names on the listing rather than stops on an itinerary. Invergowrie is the other choice. Main Street there carries St Columba's Church and the Former Free Church, with St Peter's Church the third of the Invergowrie names.
If you want Blackness Road and Perth Road within a walk, take the Dundee side of Ninewells; the Invergowrie end suits a quieter, church-lined Main Street instead.
About Ninewells
What are the main landmarks in Ninewells?
Invergowrie supplies three of the six. St Peter's Church, St Columba's Church on Main Street, and the Former Free Church at 46 Main Street sit in Invergowrie, and between them they account for the parish side of the record. The rest is Dundee address stock: Redcroft at 432 Blackness Road and Inniscarra at 385 Perth Road, both listed under names of their own.
A foundation stone at Farington House completes it.
What is the history of Ninewells?
The written record for Ninewells is short, and most of what survives is a list of protected addresses rather than a narrative: Redcroft on Blackness Road, Inniscarra on Perth Road, and three church buildings in Invergowrie. A foundation stone survives. It stands at Farington House, and it is the one item in the Ninewells list that marks a moment rather than a building, though the record does not attach a year to it.
Invergowrie carries the parish names, with St Peter's Church, St Columba's Church and the Former Free Church on and around Main Street.
Where is Ninewells?
Ninewells reaches from Blackness Road and Perth Road in Dundee to Main Street in Invergowrie, which is where its listed buildings run out.
