In 1962, I worked on a brand new sulphuric acid plant on a sewage plant near Leeds. This was a necessary part of my Chem Eng degree from UMIST.
I think that it was Esholt, but not sure. Can anyone confirm this?

There is an interesting feature on the website “The blacketts.com” about Esholt Hall, its connections to the Calveley familily and the Blacketts of North East England including Sir Walter Calverley Blackett, the so called “King of Newcastle” who built Esholt.
Sir Walter is entombed in Calverley Parish Church nearby.
