T. B. Seath & Co.

Seath & Co. was a shipbuilding company in Scotland established in 1856 by Thomas Bollen Seath (1820–1903) at a bend on the south bank of the River Clyde at Shawfield, Rutherglen;[1][2] his previous premises near Partick were taken over by A.

For a time he operated a service taking passengers downriver to central Glasgow.

[3] The company's speciality was small iron-hulled steamboats and yachts including those used in the Clutha ferry service.

The Seath business closed in 1902 after a tidal weir was installed on the river east of Albert Bridge, blocking access to the sea from Rutherglen.

[2] Seath is interred in a prominent tomb at the nearby Southern Necropolis.
