Taken from the top of No. 5 perhaps (maybe during its construction in the 1950’s?). A different view of the iron and steel works, looking inland, and down into the valley; the two rows of Furnace Cottages can be seen. Rodney Begg told us: ”I spent the last 12 years or so of my employment here as a metallurgist in the bottom Test House (just to the right of the water tower and partly hidden by the tall chimney, nearly in the centre of the picture)”.
Thanks to Rodney Begg for the update.
