Corby, The Stewarts And Lloyds Steel Works c.1955
Photo ref:
C337005
More about this scene
Long a centre of iron and steel making, using the iron-rich local limestone, Corby already had a vast 1930s steelworks and a population of about 15,000 swamping the original small village when it was designated a New Town in 1950 under the New Towns Act of 1946. This view shows the Stewart and Lloyds Steel Works with its numerous railway sidings. Later to become part of British Steel, it is now part of the privatised Corus.
