Mr Brown Factor Mr. Ingles Knightswood Map 10 Miles round Glasgow |
028 | This name is now used in various forms. About 5 years ago Pig Iron was produced from the smelting Furnaces here, but Coal and Iron of the neighborhood failing to suit the exact purposes required for smelting the calcined Ironstone, the furnaces were abondoned & have not been used since, nor are they ever likely to be so again, as stated by the authorities. The houses about are sometimes called the Garscube Rows and, as coal is still wrought at the place, it also takes the name of Garscube Colliery and sometimes the "Netherton Rows". The Factor deems it more correct to adopt the Name or description of works which first belonged to the place, and which is the only Name that proper authorities can be obtained for |
