The “Iron Moulders”, a stained glass window by Stephen Adam, c 1878. The window was one of twenty designed for Maryhill Burgh Halls which are now in the collections of the People's Palace. Each window showed a different trade practiced in the burgh, and this one shows men pouring molten iron into moulds.

Note that our COLQUHOUNs were iron moulders who lived in Maryhill.
