Dungarthill House was built in the late 19th century as a gift for one of the Cox Brothers, the renowned jute manufacturers from Dundee who went on to supply sandbags during the First World War. The Cox Brothers started their company in 1841 and went on to run the world’s largest jute factory at Camperdown Works in the city from 1849. They imported fibres from the Hoogli river in Calcutta, India, where local businessmen later opened their own factories to compete with Scottish manufacturers. The sandbags made from jute and used during the First World War proved to be vital lifesavers and were able to block shrapnel and bullets during battle.
