Scottish Iron Works 25 inch scale mapped 1858

In The Economic history of the British Iron and Steel industry 1784-1878  (London, 1967) Alan Birch provides a list -Appendix II, p.389 of Iron Furnaces in Blast, July 1849. For the Scottish blast furnaces, I have located each one on the National Library of Scotland's digital maps website, First Series 25 inch to the mile maps - surveyed 1856, published 1860. The following are the captured images for the iron works (apart from Carron). More details will be added to help identify the sites, however the name of the iron works is shown in each image.
