Abstract: |
MOLA (Museum of London Archaeology) carried out a programme of historic building recording of Gasholders 1 and 2 at the Ribbleton Lane Gasholder Station, Preston, Lancashire. Gasholder 1 was a spiral-guided gasholder built in 1955, replacing a column-guided gasholder of 1869 and utilising the below-ground tank of the earlier holder. Gasholder 2 was a giant single-order, single-tier column-guided gasholder built in 1885 by Thomas Piggot and Co. of Birmingam. Basic recording was undertaken of Gasholder 1, whilst Gasholder 2, having a greater architectural and historic value, was subject to an enhance level of recording |
