Demolition work is continuing at a former Aberdeen factory site that will be home to a new urban village.

Last September, the council gave their backing to a multi-million pound project which will transform the Broadford Works.

The development will include private and student flats, restaurants, cafes and bars, as well as offices and shops.

The Richards textile factory closed in 2004, and since then the site has often been targeted by vandals.

Demolition work began last October, and 32 listed buildings will be knocked down.

The consent means that 11 buildings, including the oldest iron-framed mill in Scotland, must be preserved.

Last year, site owner Ian Suttie was served a dangerous building notice requiring him to implement 24-hour security to prevent vandals entering the site.
