family with steel in the blood
After 159 tears of steel making the death knell sounds for Shelton Bar
Families have been left devastated by the closure of Shelton Bar steelworks. Stoke-on-Trent has lost a local institution, an industry and a part of its history.
Almost 300 workers have lost jobs and a way of life.
They face the struggle of starting again after years of fighting against the inevitable.
well that sums it up for me....! enjoy the pictures that once was....!
the site still has a few sheds that can clearly be seen from the A500...the site is under reclamation at the moment.......
i just thought id show you as we are on the subject.
