Photograph Notes: Latterly operated by Harcros Chemicals, this iron oxide pigment works had a powerhouse containing four Browett, Lindley compound steam engines driving alternators. The plant was still at work when photographed but has subsequently been scrapped. This shows one of the four sets that was running at the time (I can tell because the barring holes in the flywheel rim are not visible due to blurring). This type of power house has disappeared although there are sound thermodynamic reasons to use this type of plant when low grade steam heat is required for process.
