Craigend Brickworks - Laboratories

            Craigend Brickworks Ltd. was founded by William Wilson in 1937 on the  site of Whiterigg and Craigend Collieries (Carron Company) at Craigend, Falkirk.  It closed in 1943 due to lack of demand for bricks, but re-opened after the war.  In 1964 the pit blae supply was exhausted and the works concentrated on making refractories. The name changed to Craigend Refractories Ltd. in February 1972. When it closed in October 1982 it was Scotlands last fireclay mine.

Coalbed Methane Ltd. took over the site in the mid 1990s, intending to extract methane from a coal bed beneath the brickworks, however they went out of business before any work was carried out.
