    Murray Lamont, 1980. Inside the Black Smith Shop The shop had no electricity or running water. Light was from the windows and large open doors. All of Murray’s wood working tools were powered by a gas powered “Lester” engine. It was a single cylinder, five horse power, water cooled motor which was vented out the side of the building. Water was put in the hopper which was located on top of the motor. A local mechanic rigged up a system to run all the wood working tools using wood wheels from an early car and a series of large leather and fibre belts to drive the equipment.

    The Black Smith Shop, 1980, which stood at the Corner of the Juniper road. Murray Lamont (left) and Gibson Brown. A Black Smith Shop was located at this location since the beginning of the time. Although there were other shops in and around Glassville, this location was operational for over 100 years. There were different owners, especially in the early years. David Lamont owned it from 1889 to 1910 then his nephew Murray Lamont 1910 to 1981. There was one last owner for, four years. In 1985, it was demolished by the government as it stood too close to the curve in the road. The first Shop on this location burned to the ground in the great fire, 6th March, 1931, which changed the Glassville corner for ever. Murray re built the same year. The Black Smith shop burned again when a fire broke out in the shop during the night, on the 27th January 1945.. again, a new shop was built. The last horse Murray shoed here was in 1960.
