I was down in Charlestown near St Austell last week and spotted the weighbridge that I believe was used to weigh the China Clay-the name Charles Cross Ltd -Sheffield was cast into it, but without a date.

I thought I knew most of the old steelworks and foundrys in Sheffield but that one got me stumped. Anyone know anything ?

Excellent-thanks for that. I obviously wrote down Cross instead of Ross.

I can now sleep tonight.
