Scope and Content Deanston Distillery, near Doune, Perthshire (Perth and Kinross council area) This distillery was converted from Deanston Cotton Mill in 1965 by the Deanston Distillery Co Ltd, a subsidiary of its previous owners, James Finlay and Co Ltd. It was sold in 1972 to Invergordon Distillers (Holdings) Ltd. This view shows the interior of the stillhouse, with three of the four stills and their condensers. This space was made by taking one of the floors of the cotton mill out, and putting in steel supports for the floor above to give a columnless interior. This distillery now belongs to Burns Stewart and Co plc, who bought it in 1990. It has its own hydro-electric plant and dark grains plant, and some of the warehousing is in a remarkable vaulted weaving shed of 1836. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
