Springbank Mills, Dunblane

Image: © Chris Allen Taken: 4 May 1982

Owned by Wilsons Ltd and now converted to flats but changed out of all recognition. A new photo would be informative. Was home to a Robey class E horizontal cross compound steam engine with Arca extraction gear on the low pressure side. Scrapped 1984. There was also a water turbine on site (I photographed that in 1983)
