Short story: Rosemount Rainstorm

Rosemount is a colourful oasis of charming character north west of Aberdeen city centre. It enjoys a culture of its own, an escape from the city centre to a warm world of wonder.

On the walls of the Rosemount Square complex (inspired by German and Austrian architecture), two stunning bas-reliefs feature the Spirit of Wind and the Spirit of Rain, the work of sculptor T.B. Huxley-Jones, former Professor of Sculpture at Grays School of Art. (credit: Hidden Aberdeen by Dr Fiona-Jane Brown)
