HFF Port Talbot Neath South Wales 29th September 2024

HFF Port Talbot Neath South Wales 29th September 2024
An early Sunday morning photo session outside Tata's Port Talbot steelworks. No stunning sunrise just half-light gradually increasing.

Morfa coke ovens closed in March, Blast Furnace 5 (on the right) closed in July and BF4 closed last weekend. This ends Port Talbot's ability to produce liquid iron from ore. Around 2,800 staff from Tata's 8,000 workforce stand to lose their jobs.

HFF to everyone. Have a great weekend.

A great capture here with this sad outcome for the workers. It would have been good with the Northern Lights behind but we can't have everything.

Well done.

HFF, enjoy the weekend. Herb
