CCHT external link edit

This link was added to the article after discussion on the WP Reliable Sources Noticeboard. See: WP:RSN exercise. No information from the CCHT link has been put into the body of the article in the form of citations because it has not yet been verified for 100% accuracy by the Victoria County History project for Cumbria. (This will take some years to do). Laplacemat (talk) 10:18, 13 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Workington has long been a producer of coal, steel and high-grade iron ore. edit

That is the total amount of information in the article. Does no one know anything at all about the mining and steel industry? Or is it just not historical enough?
