Other Notes: Martin Scott was part of the W. & C. Scott dynasty, eldest son of Charles Scott (of W. & C.) and was Works manager at Scott's in 1876.
After the amalgamation with Webley in 1897, Martin declined a position in the new company, preferring instead to set up Martin Scott & Sons. A relatively short lived exercise, the company seems to be non-existent by 1908.
