Title
Arch/16 Schoolhill (looking south)
Description
A photograph looking south showing the wall and arch located to the east of 16 Schoolhill in around 1986 or 1987. This image is one of a series taken by Aberdeen City Council to record buildings prior to the redevelopment of the area and construction of the Bon Accord shopping centre. The shown area was located behind Schoolhill, between George Street and Harriet Street. It was later the site of the south west corner of the shopping centre. The partially visible spire on the skyline is that of St. Nicholas Church. Historical Ordnance Survey maps suggest this arch was the entrance to a long, and large building. Likely the stables of Wordie's, the nearby carting contractors.
