Scope and Content Workers' housing, Gartcosh, Lanarkshire Gartcosh appears to have grown up round the Gartcosh Fireclay Works, and later Smith and MacLean's sheet steel rolling works. In 1978 it served the successor to the latter, the cold-reduction steel strip mill built to finish strip from Ravenscraig. This view shows the longest of the rows of houses in the village, It was built of red and white brick. Note the cleanliness of the street, with white painted front steps. Gartcosh village was one of the least altered of Lanarkshire industrial vliiages in 1978, and was still very much a company village. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
