Appleby - Frodingham Steel Company, Scunthorpe, 1954 - flow diagram of materials
From a rather fine illustrated brochure on the Scunthorpe based division of United Steel, the Appleby Frodingham Company. The concern had its origins in the early years of the iron industry in Lincolnshire with the formation of the Frodingham Iron Company in 1864 followed by the Appleby in 1875. Steel production was begun in 1890. After a period of merger via the Steel Company of Scotland both companies became part of United Steel Companies in 1918 and gained their title of Appleby-Frodingham in 1934. The works, astonishingly, still survives as the Corus Works.
This shows a flow chart of the materials used in the processes and the products produced.
