'88 AND OUT: A Photographic History of Scunthorpe Plate Mill' by Ian Lee
For nearly nine decades, Scunthorpe Plate Mill forged the backbone of some of the world’s most iconic and enduring structures. From the soaring Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur and the majestic Angel of the North, to the Thames Flood Barrier safeguarding London and the ships, bridges, and platforms that power our daily lives - its steel plates shaped the modern world.
This book is both a photographic and a historical record of the mill’s remarkable legacy. Blending powerful images with fascinating insights, it celebrates the skill, dedication, and resilience of the men and women who worked there, and honours the global impact of their craft.
Though the mill was mothballed in 2015, its story continues to inspire. Scunthorpe Plate Mill is a testament to industrial heritage, human endeavour, and the enduring strength of steel.
