The distillery Port Dundas

Built in Glasgow in 1811, the Port Dundas grain distillery was, in its prime, the largest distillery in Scotland. Particularly innovative for its time, it was also one of the founders of the conglomerate Distillers Company Limited, a predecessor to Diageo. Despite the various improvements made throughout its life, the distillery closed in 2011.
