What is sad that Mark my words we will be wishing we had kept this in working order along with all its support mechanisms. Do we need steel? Yes? Can we depend on foreign steel imports in the future? No.....That tells you all you need to know!

I used to work in one of the Uk`s biggest automated iron foundries. Moved to Germany in 2006. It was a foundry for over 200 years. We made 16 motor shells every 32 seconds 24/7 for the Iraqi war.

Fascinating to see and have a documented record of the furnace before it gets pulled. The scene at 2:04 is a bit magical, as you navigate the furnace and the wind turbines in the background wave goodbye in unison to yet another piece of UK manufacturing. The music just works perfectly. Great video Andy

Thanks again, yes it disappearing bit by bit. They seem to be very efficient at clearing the site. I should think there will be quite a crowd gathered when the blast furnace goes. The skyline will seem strange not dominated by the steelworks anymore.

This is so cool, Andy. You'd think a movie studio would film something here. It would make a great set. It would look great in a lightning storm too. Excellent work, Andy, and the perfect music.

Thanks Christian, it would make a good movie set. Believe it or not they want that site cleared by the end of the year. The large white building is the pulverised coal injection plant, that’s scheduled for explosive demolition on Wednesday morning at 9am. Bit miffed as I might not be finished work in time to capture that one. The music is by a artist called Phaeleh, the song is called ‘Icarus’ he does some good electronic music.

I believe there was a time when it was actually planned to have two furnaces operating side by side. In fact I recall the second furnace was lying in a compound waiting to be erected. Great video BTW

Thanks 👍🏻 and yes I heard that too, but I heard there was three, one was built and the other two that weren’t built were fed into the blast furnace.

There was originally planned 3 blast furnaces with a plate mill out to sea. The second furnace was made and left near the old 'bears' from the old Warrenby steelworks site, which were there before the blast furnace which has just been knocked down. The plans were quickly scaled back after demand reduced and we were left with only one blast furnace. Bears are the solid iron clump left in the hearths of the blast furnaces after they were blown out and went cold. I worked at south teesside works in several different locations from 1975 to 2010, it was the only job I ever had. My brother worked there for 44 years also. The 'bears' from warrenby site were there for years to the left ( west) of the present main road into the site as you drive in.
