Soviet Leaders Visit Sellafield

A Memory of Seascale.

Bulganin and Khrushchev known then as B & K, visited Sellafield, in 1956 the two Soviet Leaders came to visit the nuclear re-processing plant at Sellafield, I believe they stayed at the Scawfell Hotel in Seascale, they certainly visited the hotel, can anybody else remember this event?
