There have been hundreds of objections to plans to demolish a north-east school and turn it into homes.
And campaigners against the demolition of Victoria Road Primary School will continue their battle at a public meeting at Aberdeen City Council today.
Barratt Homes originally launched a proposal to convert the site of the Torry-based school into 56 housing units in 2014, but was met with 266 letters of objection.
The scheme was abandoned in June this year after planners at the local authority recommended it be refused.
But now, the developer has launched a fresh proposal for what it claims would be “much-needed new homes” for the city.
The plans have been met with 559 objections from people who cite the loss of a granite building, insufficient parking, the design being out of character with Torry and the loss of an educational resource as issues.
David Fryer, secretary of Torry Community Council which has led objections to the plans, said: “It is our considered view that granite buildings are fine, they should be retained and given a new lease of life.
“We can see in Causeway End School and Mile End School how this has happened.
“So we hope that anyone who supports the retention of granite buildings will make it along even if they are not making a statement.”
An online petition against the plan has also gathered 218 signatures.
Collette Snelling, who set up the latter, said: “Aberdeen City Council is pitching to build a new school in Torry when we have a perfectly good school they left to rot. They cannot keep destroying our heritage.”
Douglas McLeod, Regional Director at Barratt Scotland, said: “We have further amended our planning application for the site at Victoria Road to accord with the latest requests from the local city planners.
“We believe our proposal will provide an appropriately-designed development which will deliver much-needed affordable new homes, whilst making use of new and existing granite and we will continue to work closely with the planners and local community to progress our plans.”
