Bell tolls for former Strathmore Avenue fire station

The former Strathmore Avenue fire station in Dundee is set to be torn down.

The city council wants to demolish it and attract a housing development.

A sale would help balance future budgets by contributing to targets for generating cash from land sales.

Jack Searle, acting chairman of Dundee Civic Trust, said he would have no complaints.

''It's a building of its time, but if the site was to become new housing then that would probably be quite good,'' he said.
