In 1837, it was sold again to John and James Grant, who dismantled the distilling equipment and shuttered the doors to the distillery.

Even at the time, it was an impressive distillery, according to the Wine and Spirits Trade Record. The distillery had two still-houses: "in one there are three old-fashioned stillsin the other there are three larger stills, installed in 1897.
