A. and J. Inglis Limited was a Scottish shipbuilding and marine engineering firm based at the Pointhouse yard in Partick, Glasgow, where the Kelvin meets the Clyde. It was founded by the brothers Anthony and John Inglis in 1862 and over roughly a century built more than 500 vessels, among them Clyde steamers, paddle steamers, yachts, small ocean liners, railway ferries, lightships, wartime corvettes and trawlers, and postwar whalers. Its best known survivors are the paddle steamers Waverley and Maid of the Loch. Harland and Wolff bought a controlling interest in 1919, though the yard kept operating independently, and the Pointhouse yard closed in 1962 and was later cleared for the Riverside Museum. Its coastal tankers of 1945, including MV Aqueity, were built for the Ministry of War Transport.
