Public Parks

Dundee Law is one of the best examples of wildlife areas in Dundee.

Over the years, through a management plan, the variety of trees and wild flowers have been increased and this in turn has improved the number and variety of wildlife that can be found in this area.

The Howff Cemetery was formerly used as a meeting place by the Nine Trades of Dundee.

In the Howff visitors can see tombstones of many of Dundee’s leading citizens, including the gravestone of James Chalmers, the inventor of the adhesive postage stamp.

The Howff is a pleasant oasis within the city with its ancient trees and seated areas.

You can view the burial records for the Howff Graveyard on the Friends of Dundee City Archives website.
