Details: As William Ogilvie had done at Merton, Peter Cunningham built a cheese dairy at Dalswinton. Cunningham's dairy had ten stone cheese presses, each weighing upwards of a quarter of a ton. A small cavity in the top end of each stone press was filled with lead, into which a great ring bolt was screwed. A press was hung by its iron ring from a wooden beam which acted as a lever, and was guided into the lid of the cheese mould or vat by battens fitting loosely in its grooved sides.
