A virtual tour of the early history of Juniper Green
Slide 3
This slide shows corn, paper and snuff. The early growth of our village depended on these three. Corn was ground for meal, bread and oatcakes at the mills and grown on the land here. Snuff, was brought in from America as tobacco and transported across from Glasgow, probably brought on wagons along the Lanark Road and ground here. And, paper was mixed, rolled and dried here in the paper mills for 300 years. Up to the early 2000s we still had corn processed and dried at Inglis Mill but by 2006 all trace of it has gone.
