Here is Britain's oldest manufacturing company established in 1570 in the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. It has been in continuous business since then and famously made the bells for Big Ben and the Liberty Bell in the US. Jack the Ripper would have walked past these premises on his grisly endeavours. The lashing rain when I photographed this just added to the atmosphere of the place. It's free to have a wander around inside and you can book a tour of the foundry.
Note: The foundry closed in May 2017.
The Rose Street Foundry and Engineering Company's head office in Inverness was built in 1893 to the design of architects Ross and Macbeth. Three years later a set of mosaics showing the activities of the company were added to the gables. The building has been empty for some time and the mosaics had deteriorated badly by 2018. Since I took this photo they have been restored and the building is being converted for further use. It is listed Grade B.

The Welsh National Slate Museum is located in Llanberis, and the exhibits and buildings are authentic pieces from when the Slate quarry was fully working. Slate mining began over 200 years ago, and at its peak more than 100,000 tonnes were excavated annually, employing about 3,000 men. Much of the machinery involved in the huge quarry was produced and maintained in the Slate mine engineering workshops.
Due to danger and difficulty in mining, as well as the increased instability of the millions of tonnes of debris, mining finally ceased in 1969.
