Scope and Content 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 one of the blocks of housing in the village, which is laid out along a single street parallel to the new lade constructed in the late 1820s. These houses differ from the rest of the houses in the village in having external stairs. After the end of cotton manufacture in 1965 the semi-basement and first floor of the mill were 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.
