The Hope cement plant was built by BPCM in 1929 as a wet process plant with two kilns. The plant was expanded with additional kilns in 1935, 1938 and 1953, with a final capacity of 600,000 tonnes per year. In 1970, it was re-built with two dry process kilns with a capacity of 1.2 million tonnes per year, and it remains operational (2012). For details, history and many links, see [[http://www.cementkilns.co.uk/cement_kiln_hope.html]]. |

Its interesting to note that this was taken two weeks before the first kiln started up on 15/11/29. The rawmills had already been run, because there is slurry in the tanks. |
