BBQ stands on the Green

Following requests from 'Friends of Magdalen Green', Dundee City Council have installed three barbecue stands on the Green so that people can enjoy their meals without burning the Green. A group of Chinese students were the first to use the stand on the south edge of the Green last Sunday. Notice how the stand protects the food from visiting dogs!
