Is the Sulphur tank tipping at Stavely ?
[/quote]
No it’s actually in Clapcott’s yard at Totton near Southampton, the tank in the background is a water tank for the yard behind.
I seem to recall this is a dodgy spot to tip when it’s windy. The wind whistles round those silos.
ahhh tip tanks will look up some of my pics from freund days when im home next

Had the pleasure ■■ of running sulphur Fawley to Stavely every day for a couple of years up till it closed, and then to Rocksavage works at Runcorn for a while, followed by a few months of running it to France. At least there were no cleanouts with sulphur barrels.

The yard you mention was attached to the main site of Smiths of Eccles, Smiths used it regularly and when TDG moved in they parked a few rolled tankers and VOR kit there. Pickfords/Tankfreight was on the side nearest Dumplington circle and Massey Ferguson tractors on the other side
