| THEMA | Beschreibung |
| TEXT | These works have during their long existence been the nursery of many men who have become distinguished in the iron trade. The proprietors, Messrs. Moses M'CuUoch & Co., have the reputation of turning out first-class work. Special attention is given to all kinds of structural castings, such as columns and beams, which are now so extensively used in the construction of warehouses, etc. Lamp pillars for street lighting are also made in great quantities, many hundreds of which may be seen in use in the streets of Glasgow and of the suburbs, the Corporation having got their supply at these works for many years. Various other castings are also made, such aa stable fittings, cast-iron windows, etc. Mountings for bakers' ovens are a speciality of the firm, so that their name has been long and closely associated with the baking industry all over the country. Although the productions of the firm are principally for the home markets, still many export orders are executed for the colonies and foreign countries. |
