A Dundee home on the cobbled street once home to the shipyard that built RRS Discovery has gone on the market.

The three-bedroom maisonette is on Chandlers Lane, where the Panmure Shipyard once stood.

The yard was responsible for the construction of the iconic Discovery in 1901.

The former harbour workshops and offices were converted into homes and one of those properties is now for sale.

On this level, there are also two double bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Upstairs is a large main bedroom with an en-suite and extra storage space.
