Description

B&W negative copied in 1990 from official albums then held at Grangemouth refinery.

A view looking westwards from Pumpherston bing across the refinery. c.1935? In the foreground is a rope worked haulage, then a line of private owner wagons from a variety of English and Welsh destinations (filled with paraffin coke?). Behind these there are banks of pot stills with the tower of the cracker in the background. On the far right a steam crane works in the yard of the Brickworks.
