Watch: Shotton Steelworks - site transport

A silent '60s film showing the transport and the workers who had to get around Shotton Steelworks when the site was seven miles across.


Watch this eight minute film, Transport Serving a Steelworks, made by John Summers Steelworks - at its Shotton site in the '60s. The film shows everything from the array of vehicles used on-site to the typing pool and other office scenes.

The original film was recorded on 16mm cine film and it was found in Corus's Archives at Shotton Works. It was converted by BBC Wales and digitised for use online here courtesy of Corus.
