24 Schoolhill (rear of)

A photograph looking south west at an area to the rear of 24 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.

This image appears to show remaining walls of buildings that once stood in Donald's Court. These were likely demolished in the mid-20th century.

Donald's Court, also known as Wordie's Court or the Donalder, was once a tight knit community living alongside industry such as Wordie's carting contractors and the Aberdeen Coffee Works of Thomas Curr & Co.
