Lennoxtown Friendly Victualling Society In the drive towards democratization, a co-operative society was established in 1812, the Lennoxtown Friendly Victualling Society. The purpose of this society was to provide the necessities of life at the cheapest and easiest terms available. The membership fee was 1s and 6d (1/6), and each member was issued with a personal number to claim dividends. Customers were urged to follow the wise example of the pioneers and join up! The society, which also had branches in Milton and Torrance was wound up in 1965, and its engagements were transferred to the Kirkintilloch Equitable Society.
