Plans to clean the historic granite within Union Terrace Gardens have been approved.
Aberdeen City Council planning papers reveal that “conservation cleaning” of the stonework in the gardens will soon be taking place.
This includes the balustrades along Union Terrace, the staircases leading down to the gardens and all the stone arches.
It is part of a wider multi-million programme of works to revamp Union Terrace Gardens.
The scope of work will include the careful cleaning of the granite to remove the years of pollution and dirt which had darkened the once sparkling facades, as well as any small re-pointing repairs needed along the way.

A Fraserburgh home destroyed during a devastating gas explosion will be repaired and modernised at a cost of £179,000 to Aberdeenshire Council.
Fisherman Jonny Tait was rushed to hospital following the blast on Moray Road on March 6 last year.
A local firm has been appointed for the works, which will take four months and are now looking to be around £45,000 costlier than previously estimated.
Devastating fire
The entire road was cordoned off for several hours while firefighters worked to extinguish the blaze.
Large black scorch marks could be seen above the property’s front door, while the impact from the blast had knocked the glass and fixtures from several windows.
