Description: | One of the most successful centrifugal pit ventilation fans was designed by the Belgian Theopile Guibal in 1859. This structure overlooking Whitehaven harbour was built about 1862 to house a Guibal fan and the adjoining tower was an air outlet. Other associated mine buildings have been demolished, while this fan house is scheduled. | Subjects: | Ventilation Shaft Derelict Chimney Shaft Industry | Source: | English Heritage - Viewfinder | Creator: | Skingle, B | Identifier: | http://viewfinder.english-heritage.org.u... | Language: | en | Go to resource |
