The Humber cement plant was built as a private venture, commencing operation in 1921. It was taken over by BPCM in 1923. Chalk was quarried 2.5 km to the north and pumped as slurry to the plant. Initially with two wet process kilns, a third was added in 1925, then the plant remained entirely unchanged until closure in 1981.
