Sharp, Stewart and Company was a British builder of steam locomotives, established in Manchester in 1843 after the dissolution of Sharp, Roberts and Company, a firm whose roots lay in the Sharp Brothers partnership of 1823. In 1852 the senior partner John Sharp retired and Charles Patrick Stewart joined, which gave the firm the name it kept to the end. It built engines for railways across Britain and overseas, among them the Highland Railway's Jones Goods class, the first 4-6-0 locomotives in the British Isles, and a large run of Furness Railway and Midland Railway locomotives. After completing its 3,442nd locomotive the company outgrew its Manchester site and in 1888 moved to the former Clyde Locomotive Company works at Springburn in Glasgow, which it renamed Atlas Works. In 1903, having built 5,088 engines, it amalgamated with Neilson, Reid and Company and Dubs and Company to form the North British Locomotive Company.
