Scope and Content Denny Iron Works, Glasgow Road, Denny, Falkirk This shows the rear of the moulding shops. The brick frontage is late 19th-century in origin, but the steel-framed, corrugated iron-clad shops behind are of mid-20th-century date. On the right is a pile of small moulding boxes. This firm was primarily a maker of agricultural machinery, especially ploughs and Cambridge rollers, and also made iron and steel castings as engineering components, for, among others, J & T Boyd, textile machinery makers, Glasgow. The iron founding industry was a speciality of the south-east corner of Stirlingshire, with the towns of Larbert, Denny, Falkirk and Bonnybridge all having several firms engaged in this business. The Denny Iron Works was founded in 1870, and belonged to Cruikshank & Co Ltd. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
