Reviews for Verdant Works

Really great museum, a lot of history not just about Jute, but working life in Dundee. Amazing tour, very well done. The place is very well constructed and designed. And the staff are amazing, in particular, Lily had amazing information of her time in the Mill working at 14. She was even able to show us the machines in operation. Great experience and would highly recommend this to anybody interested in local and Scottish history. I can imagine this would be a great place for School...read full review

This is a fantastic museum, capturing in detail the history and technical production of jute products, their global impact and the social history of the female and child workforce. More than well worth a visit.

I had no previous knowledge of the Verdant works until i visited Dundee. This is a 1st class exhibition telling the story of Jute in Dundee and has a vast collection of machinery and exhibits housed in an old mill. Extremely well laid out. We spent at least 3 hours in it and didn't see all of it. Their cafe is reasonably priced and manned by extremely helpful personnel. Their was a guide on hand to assist with any queries. Well worth a visit.
