GO TO SCWS▶▶

MOntrose developed as a market town, fishing port and trading port. It originally traded in skins, hides and cured salmon but developed to include various crops, wine and timber. Flax mills were built from about 1800 that later converted to Jute. For a period it was also a popular spa town. Today the town is involved in providing goods and services for the North Sea oil industry.

The town had a train station in 1848 that was a short branch line from the Aberdeen Railway. A thorugh railway was completed and a new station opened in 1883.

MONTROSE CO-OPERATIVE SOCIETY 1860-1969

The society was formed in 1860 under the name Montrose Baking and Grocery Co-operative Society. With the objective of enabling workers to invest in a co-operative association, shares were 10/- each. It appears to have not joined the SCWS until after 1900. It appears to have eneterd into a dividend competition with the Montrose Baking and Trading Society leading to the demise of that society. In 1920 the society formally changed its name to the Montrose Co-operative Society in 1920. The society joined North Angus in 1969.

MONTROSE BAKING AND TRADING SOCIETY 1846-1912

In 1846 the move from potatoes to bread had resulted in a large increase in the price of bread in Montrose, with bakeries being sold out. In this year the Montrose Wheaten Bread Society was formed by workers with the aim of providing bread at more realistic prices. In November 1860 it was issuing 500 new shares for househlders only. In 1861 the society decided to restructured itself. It registered under the name Montrose Baking and Trading Society and formally dissolved the Wheaten Bread Society. All memberships and property were transferred to the new society. The Montrose Baking and Trading Society membership had declined from 1195 in 1899 to 706 in 1901> A meeting was held in August 1912 to discuss winding up the society because it could not meet its liabilities. The society was wound up and tried to find a buyer for the business. It was sold by auction in May 1913.
