054 | [Situation] At the eastern end of the Overgate and Southern side of the Street According to the idea entertained by the most intelligent of the inhabitants of Dundee concerning these objects. They were wooden projections attached permanently to the fronts of a range or ranges of houses in Overgate they were so constructed as to serve the purpose of Shops, or perhaps similar to the modern "arcade". It is also asserted that here the Free men of the Burgh had booths free of Toll where they disposed of their manufactured & other goods. whilst the stranger or others who had not the freedom of transacting mercantile business or trades within the burgh had booths allotted to them in another part adjoining the market Place for which they paid Toll according to the bye laws of the burgh These booths it is said by Mr. Young and others extended along the fronts of the houses on the south side of Overgate from the High Street to Thorter Row - The Luckenbooths were generally in every City & burgh in Scotland. |
