Scope and Content Workers' Housing, Teith Road, Deanston, Stirling This village was founded in 1785 by the Buchanan family to spin cotton by water power, using Richard Arkwright's package of processes. The mills were eventually taken over in 1808 by James Finlay & Co, who continued cotton manufacture there until 1965. This shows part of the mill-workers' housing provided by the company, with part of the village school on the left. This housing was kept up-to-date by James Finlay & Co, and was modernised in about 1900. After the end of cotton manufacture in 1965 part of the mill was converted into a malt whisky distillery, as Deanston Distillery. This has passed through various hands, and is still operating. The housing is now in individual ownership. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
