Dunstable, with a note on clinker stocks!

The Dunstable cement plant began operation in 1926 under the ownership of the Dunstable Portland Cement Company. It was acquired by the Red Triangle Group shortly after this picture was taken, in late 1927. After the collapse of Red Triangle in 1931, it was acquired by APCM. A third kiln was installed in 1937 and a fourth in 1966. It shut down in 1971.



The clinker stockpile, using the pictures and the map, can be calculated to contain 40-50,000 tonnes. The capacity of the plant at this time was 120,000 tonnes per year, and it had been running for about a year. This gives some indication of the conditions under which Red Triangle was purchasing the plant from its luckless promoters.
