Meadow Mill is a former jute mill in the Blackness area of Dundee, which today provides studios to around 100 visual artists and designers from across Tayside. It is the largest facility of its kind in the region.

Formerly known as North Dudhope Mill, the building was opened in 1874 by Urqhuart Lindsay and Co., with around 5oo people working there at the peak of Dundee’s textile boom. This jute mill specialised in the spinning and weaving of jute before it was sent on to be used in the city’s other flourishing industries; whaling, fishing and shipbuilding.
