  The foundry was built in 1870/1 in red and white brick for Steven & Struthers, brass founders, it is partly two and partly three storeys, with a large circular fanlight. It remained a foundry until 1914 when it was reconstructed as a paint works for Smith & Rodger and functions as such today. The attached building to the right of the foundry, was originally Glasgow Saw and File Works. In 1840, the founder of the firm walked all the way from Harworth in Nottinghamshire to Glasgow to set up his business!
