There are no toilets in the Old Steeple but there are in the adjoining Steeple Church and in the Overgate Shopping Centre, beside the tower.

Accessibility

There is a ramp for access into the ground floor of the Old Steeple, but the ringing chamber is up a staircase.

Central Dundee has many cafes, restaurants and pubs, with a food court in the shopping mall next to the church.

Interesting Facts

The Old Steeple is part of a large site known as the City Churches. Although it adjoins the Steeple Church, the tower is owned by Dundee City Council and cared for by Leisure and Culture Dundee on the Council's behalf. The Old Steeple is the only standing feature from the late 15th Century complex.
