Glasgow Iron Company

Company recorded as opening the colliery at Roslin around 1876 under the name The Moat, before the Shotts Iron Company re-sank the site. OPERATOR DEDUP CANDIDATE: add_operator() warned that this shares a distinctive token with the existing 'Glasgow Iron & Steel Company Ltd' row, and the two may well be the same continuing firm. It was kept separate because the source for Roslin names the Glasgow Iron Company plainly and no source read here establishes the relationship between the two names. Settle it in an operator dedup pass rather than on this record.
