A beer garden at a popular Broughty Ferry pub has been refused by Dundee councillors.
In total 25 letters of objection were received, including one from Broughty Ferry Community Council.
A spokesperson for the pub said today they were “disappointed but not surprised” at the ruling, and questioned why the community council and councillor Craig Duncan had not contacted them prior to the meeting to discuss the plans.

The section of the road at the Rock Gardens will be opened on April 26.
It was temporarily closed last June, to reduce traffic, and reopened in October before closing again.
The stretch was closed on both occasions as part of the Spaces for People programme, introduced during the Covid-19 pandemic to allow social distancing for people out walking and cycling.
Accessible to all
Broughty Ferry councillor Craig Duncan said: “As we move into a welcome relaxation of Covid-19 rules I know that many elderly residents and others with mobility issues will particularly welcome to reopening of Broughty Ferry Esplanade to through traffic which will make access to the Rock Gardens much easier for people in such categories.
