ps..
Chemical waste was put through a furnace in the Brediland Chemical Works ( large chimney clearly seen in library archive photos). The black tar was the left over residue and the various old mine shafts were very convenient for dumping it in.

Funny how it has taken 12 months SO FAR to work that one out....
I have a 500 page land survey report which clearly shows the types of contamination recorded and even that fails to take the tar pits into consideration. You can find a copy of that in the Linwood libary and you will see slate is not the culprit here..........

Was the black Tar from some old chemical works thats not degraded or is it a natural substance brogfht up from the mining years ago?

Turns out the land was'nt contaminated afterall! The smell was the raw slate. |
