Established in 1759 on the banks of the River Carron near Falkirk, the Carron Company ironworks enjoyed a close association with the Adam brothers. John Adam was one of the principle directors and encouraged both Robert and the younger James (themselves shareholders) to patronise the company on behalf of their esteemed clients.
