Abstract/Contents: | Describes the transformation of a polluted coking site into a large park and golf course. Also describes the history of the section of land now known as Derwenthaugh Park, and details the waste and toxic chemicals the Gateshead Metropolitan Borough Council had to dispose of. Wildlife has returned to the once barren area and plans are underway to reconstruct the industrial features so people can see how the coke-producing complex worked. |
