Originally the gasworks operated on a two hectare but between 1900 to 1910 extra land was acquired to allow for a major extension of the retort houses and associated gas storage tanks.

  • Gasworks and Gasholders Introductions to Heritage Assets Summary
    Gasworks and Gasholders Introductions to Heritage Assets Summary Historic England’s Introductions to Heritage Assets (IHAs) are accessible, authoritative, illustrated summaries of what we know about specific types of archaeological site, building, landscape or marine asset. Typically they deal with subjects which lack such a summary. This can either be where the literature is dauntingly voluminous, or alternatively where little has been written. Most often it is the latter, and many IHAs bring understanding of site or building types which are neglected or little understood. Gas works, or sites where gas was manufactured by thermally decomposing fossil fuels and stored in gasholders, were one of the most ubiquitous and widely distributed industrial complexes of the 19th and 20th centuries. Frequently constructed on the edges of urban areas, close to their customers and adjacent to rivers, canals and railways - reflecting both the inability of the early works to transmit gas over large distances and the reliance Front cover: on a supply of coal – meant that gasworks and gasholders had a The Cheltenham Gas considerable visual impact on the landscape.

  • Gasholders and Their Tanks
    Gasholders and their Tanks A profile of the construction of different types of gasholders, their associated tanks and their occurrence on former gasworks and gasholder station sites. Prepared by Dr Russell Thomas, Technical Director, Parsons Brinckerhoff, Redland, Bristol, UK, 0117-933-9262, [email protected] or [email protected]. The author is grateful to fellow members of the Institution of Gas Engineers and Managers Panel for the History of the Industry and the staff of the National Grid Gas Archive for their kind assistance. Introduction This profile aims to give an insight into the construction and operation of gasholders and their tanks, for those who investigate former gasworks sites or have a general interest in the gas industry. All images courtesy of the National Gas Archive, unless stated. Although gasholders seem simple, the complexity and ingenuity of these structures should not be underestimated; they are the result of complex engineering design which was gradually refined Photograph 1.
