Salt Sunday 2010 Visit to British Salt

Members of the Salt of the Earth Network were priviledged to be given a conducted tour of the  British Salt vacuum evaporation works at Middlewich. Thanks are due to Ron Barber (blue overalls standing next to Bishop of Birkenhead).


Display boards and objects showing the salt heritage of Middlewich were provided in St Michael and All Angles church by Kerry Fletcher, Middlewich Town Council heritage Officer, and from Ineos Enterprise, Solvay and British salt. This was as part of St Michaels Harvest Festival, with a salty flavour, and was followed in the afternoon by a service of celebration of salt led by the Bishop of Birkenhead .
