Dundee, Foundry Lane, new moulding shop for Messrs Gourlay Bro and Co.

See AND 170/1-2

A cast-iron-framed 13-bay by 9-bay engine works built in 1870 for Gourlay Brothers, comprising rubble-built walls with dressed-stone quoins, and a piended slate roof divided into two, the wider part covering an erecting shop, and the smaller the adjacent machine-shop galleries. The building was disused at the time of survey in 2002, and there were plans to dismantle and re-erect it at another location.
