North Ayrshire - Largs, Fairlie and Hunterston
The idea of the Direct Reduction Plant at Hunterston was to reduce the oxide in the iron ore and increase its iron content to over 90%, prior to being transported to Ravenscraig, thus reducing transport costs. The plant, proposed in 1974 and built in 1981, was never used as its fuel cost was too great. In 1994, the plant was dismantled and sold. Taken by David Palmar
