A General View Workington

1920s

View southwest from a high point towards two of the town’s iron and steel works. On the left is the Mossbay Works and in the centre is the Derwent Works with slag banks far right. More than twenty chimneys are visible across the skyline. There is a mix of housing with larger houses close by and terraces down in the town.
