Talbots

The Talbot furnace at Skinningrove works. Eric Johnson advised: ”A view of the front side, of a 120 ton Talbot furnace. The charging pans on the right contain (galley) iron ore, on the far side of the furnace the pans contain lime. The furnace doors are water cooled, added after oil firing was introduced. To the left of the Melter, in front of the door is a stand used for the hot metal chute.” Does anyone know the name of the gentleman standing rather close it looks to me.
