MineArchiveAberthaw and Bristol Channel Portland Cement Company
Floated in June 1912 by the Beynon family to build a cement works at Aberthaw beside its own limestone. The site was green-field at the start of 1913 and the first two kilns were running by May 1914. It absorbed the neighbouring Aberthaw and Rhoose Point Portland and Lime Company in 1919 and ran both sites until Blue Circle bought them in 1983.
