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.
