Lostock works

With the imminent demise of soda ash production at the Tata Chemicals Lostock Works on the edge of Northwich, I thought a farewell visit was in order. The plant was hard at work with plenty of steam from the lime plant seen centre rear. The crane and new steelwork showing at the left rear is associated with the construction of an energy from waste power station due to open in 2025 but probably running behind schedule.
