Robert Dempster and his ironworks
editI came here looking to link to info on this man or his business as part of working on Gas Stripping Tower which they built. I understand it was a significant manufacturing business in the town. At the moment I am linking to Edith Pretty a granddaughter whose article makes brief mention of them. Kerry (talk) 07:59, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
- Rather then just creating a page title to redirect to the Edith Pretty article you could write an article on The Iron works, or Dempster himself. The ironworks was known as Rosemount Ironworks. Robert Dempster & Sons was bought out in 1963 and became Oxley Dempster Ltd, which was then closed down in 1971 and eventually became a housing estate. Dempster himself originated from Cupar, in Scotland and died in Conway. You can find some info on both from the following websites:- http://www.gracesguide.co.uk/Robert_Dempster_and_Sons - http://nick-myurbex.blogspot.co.uk/2011/03/elland-gas-works-building.html.
