    Arrow Steetley Magnesite, Hartlepool, Oct 2010, Again - Sorry.

    This must be the 10000000000th report on here, but i went down today to try out my new lens.

    Nothing has changed apart from the security hut seems to have been abandoned, including the car.

    We all know the history and if you dont i encourage you to look at this website

    Quite please with my self and i think i have accumulated an intresting set of pictures. Hope you feel the same way.

    Yeah i'll post some up, dont have many, i purposly under and over exposed most of them, dunno what i was trying to acheive, so the blue pools look quite dark.

    To be honest, the pools are no where near as blue as they used to be. All the chemicals have depleated to just water now









    Thats all i have

    Always good to see Steetly, even if it's a shadow of its former self.

    Nice work.

    MNB, seven out of the eight pools were blue. Tank number 8 being the wash tank and it was a very thick, gloopy white.

    I actually dont know about the chimney, but if you contact the webmaster on that site, he worked at steetley for a very long time and is very knowledgable. Tis a good question, and i'd like to know - so find out!

    Could be to do with deflection of heat?
