The blaze was tackled by 18 firefighters
A 25-year-old man has appeared in court accused of starting a major fire at Dundee's dock area.
Dean Yeats, from Forfar, is alleged to have caused the blaze at King George V Pumping Station on Thursday.
Prosecutors allege he wilfully set fire to a piece of paper and threw it on the pumping station.
It is alleged this caused a fire to take effect, causing "extensive damage." Mr Yeats made no plea or declaration at Dundee Sheriff Court.
The case was continued for further examination and he was granted bail.
