Once a separate village, Grangepans is a district of Bo'ness lying to the east of the town centre and to the west of the district of Bridgeness.

 

Here in Grangepans, the Grange Pottery began production in 1879.  This was a relatively short-lived venture lasting less than ten years.

 

1892 saw the opening of the Industrial Co-operative Pottery.  Trading for only two years, it closed in 1894.

 

Working from the old Industrial Pottery premises, the West Lothian Pottery was a greater success and operated from 1896 until its closure in 1929.
