Deanshanger Oxides Ltd
Manufacturers of iron and red lead oxides for use as pigments in paint, brick, ceramics etc. The pretty colour of the roofs is due to the product. The plant had its own reciprocating steam engine power house with four large Browett, Lindley engines driving alternators. The plant closed in 1996 and has subsequently been swept away.

Deanshanger Oxides - power house
Latterly operated by Harcros Chemicals, this iron oxide pigment works had a powerhouse containing four Browett, Lindley compound steam engines driving alternators. The plant was still at work when photographed but has subsequently been scrapped. This view shows two of the four sets. The closest set is being overhauled and the alternator has been removed and the crankcase doors are off. If I recall correctly this work was being done by a firm of marine engineers from Lowestoft.
This sort of sight (and site) has very largely disappeared although I believe a power house survives in Northern Ireland.
