(Location cited as NH 666 687). Dalmore Distillery, Alness, founded 1839. A large complex of buildings of mixed date, with two large malting kilns. Now out of use, but preserved, are two single cylinder steam-engines by James Milne of Edinburgh, one vertical (?1880's) and the other horizontal (1898). The horizontal [engine] drove two draff driers and conveyors, and the vertical [engine] drove the malt kiln.
