Thomas Walmsley and Sons
Thomas Walmsley and Sons was a company that manufactured wrought iron. It was founded in 1866 or 1869 by Thomas Walmsley at the Atlas Forge on a site bounded by Bridgeman Street and Fletcher Street in Bolton, then in Lancashire, England. The forge had at least 16 puddling furnaces and forging and rolling mills.
Production lasted for over 100 years until 1975 when it was the last plant in the United Kingdom to produce wrought iron. Much of the plant was acquired by the Ironbridge Gorge Museum Trust for its Blists Hill Victorian Town and where it is used to demonstrate the process to visitors.〔 A steam hammer supplied to the company by Nasmyth & Wilson of Patricroft is preserved outside Bolton University. After 1975 the company became steel stockholders and closed in 1984.
