Abstract:		 Steel has been of unparalleled importance in industrial history, having developed from a specialised trade in the mid-18th century into a global industry which continues to have a huge impact on of all branches of engineering, construction, transportation and architecture. Earlier forms of iron and steel making have been well researched, leading to the protection of historic sites and the regeneration of post-industrial areas. The distinctive sites of the later steel industry have seen little research or recording, however, and have largely been demolished. This overview of the later steel industry was prompted by the recession of late 2015, which resulted in further closures and the reorganisation of an industry that had already contracted dramatically in the second half of the 20th century.
