Lochside

Lochside distillery stood in the town of Montrose in the middle of A92, which connects Dundee and Aberdeen. Joseph W Hobbs bought an old beer brewery established in 1890.He set upped 4 pot stills and 1 Coffey's still and started distilling in 1957. Allied group purchased the distillery in 1992 and in the same year they ceased distilling.
In 1997 the warehouse was closed. After that, local estate agent bought the place and in March, 2006 the structure was pulled down.
Now a beautiful flat stands there and you can't imagine the old days from the site. (May 2008)
