Retort

Retort
The retort benches at the Poynton gasworks have partially survived even though the works closed along with the local collieries in August 1935. The clay retorts are over six feet long and around 13 inches high. This is looking inside one of the retorts that last produced gas all those years ago. Housing development now threatens the site.
