Fountain Brewery is situated beside the Union Canal in Fountainbridge, and was established by William McEwan in 1856, becoming part of Scottish Brewers in 1931 after a merger with Youngers, subsequently merging to create Scottish & Newcastle Brewers in 1960. In that time, the brewery has been thoroughly modernised, and by the time of survey in 2001, very little survived of the original fabric. However, there were also plans to withdraw from the site by 2005.
