Old Photograph Florence Booth House Lochee Dundee Scotland


Old photograph of the Florence Booth house in Clement Park, Lochee, Dundee, Scotland. Initially the Dundee Mothers’ and Children’s Home opened at Seafield Lodge, Magdalen Green. In 1927, the home was moved to Cidhmore, Perth Road. It was not until the following year that it finally settled in Clement Park and took on the name of Florence Booth House. In 1969, a childrens section opened and the following year the maternity section closed leaving it as a children’s home effectively. It remained as such until 1991 when it closed. In later years, the site became a hostel for adults and was later sold for private development.
