Publication Account (2013)
At the heart of the town, an ornate cast iron lamp standard by George Smith of Sun Foundry, Glasgow and in the park a good example of a drinking fountain and one of the larger bandstands supplied by Walter MacFarlane and Co, Saracen Ironworks, Glasgow. The roof shape was the main way that variation could be made, compared to the examples in Magdalen Green, Dundee (DW14) and in Dunfermline.
