Plan of new Walker Steel service centre, 1975
Ever wondered what a building occupying a million square feet of space looks like?
This was the artist’s drawing which the Lancashire Evening Telegraph was given showing the scale of the new Walker Steel service centre at Lower Darwen in 1975. It would be the largest steel service centre in the country.
Did you work there?What was it like working in such a large building?
