Scope and Content Montgomeryfield Brickworks, Dreghorn, Ayrshire This works was established by a local firm of coal-owners, A. Kenneth and Sons, probably to consume blaes from the bings of their collieries. When the works closed c1975 it had four continuous kilns, served by three tall square-section chimneys. This is a general view of the works from the north west, showing all four kilns and all three chimneys. The works had been closed by the time this photograph was taken, and was demolished soon after. The site has now been built over. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
