Hall, Russell & Co.

Aberdeen, United Kingdom

Founded in 1864 as a steam engine and boiler maker and started shipbuilding in 1867. Nationalised as part of the state owned British Shipbuilders in 1977 but re-privatised in 1986. Placed in receivership in November 1988, the yard was subsequently purchased by A&P Appledore and continued to trade as A&P Appledore (Aberdeen) until 1992 when the yard was closed.
