Hi all,
Big thanks to Pete Smith for sending an old nostalgia book about The Steel Company of Wales’ Margam works.This photo is the former main entrance,this rigid is pictured leaving The Abbey,The new road runs right passed we’re this lorry is photographed.over the years there must have been trillions of Tonnes of steel on lorries that started their journey there…
Morning Andrew,
Is that lorry still on the steel works internal road heading towards the original A48?
There are some good facts and figures in that book considering its 1960! I presume the book predates Llanwern as it mentions a tie up with Richard Thomas and Baldwin about a new venture which I presume was Llanwern, Cheer’s Pete
