William Eadie, Moray Street, Blackford, Tayside
The Eadies ran a long-established inn in Blackford. In 1863, William Eadie Jnr (1822-1886) is described as a brewer. William had retired by 1881, and the brewery was offered for sale. The premises were then acquired in 1895 by William Chalmers Burns Thomson, who commissioned a new brewery on the site and adjoining land.
The hotel and associated buildings survive to this day as the Blackford Hotel, behind which can be seen the maltings built by W B Thomson Ltd.
