Saracen Foundry
Volumes 1 & 2
This volume is the first of a number of Technical Reference books to be produced by the Technical Conservation Group and celebrates the legacy of one of Scotland's most successful and internationally renowned 19th Century industrial firms, Walter MacFarlane & Co's Saracen Foundry. There are very few original catalogues of Walter MacFarlane and Co left in general circulation, yet their ironwork is common. This publication is intended to act as a technical reference for those involved in the conservation of existing ironwork, or assisting in the design of replacement items.

Thank you
The Engine Shed has been supported by a grant from the National Lottery Heritage Fund. Thanks to National Lottery players, we have been able to create Scotland’s dedicated building conservation centre. It enables us to encourage understanding of traditional building materials and skills among the public and professionals and raise standards in conservation for traditional buildings.
