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 part of the warehousing used for maturing spirit, which can only be called whisky after at least three years in oak casks. This vaulted warehouse was built in 1836 as a power-loom weaving shop. 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. The vaulted warehouse is one of only two buildings of the kind built in Britain, the other being in Leeds.
