I know i have covered some of the history on my previous report but just in case,
Couldn't really find much history about it but anyway,
The name Cosalt was a portmanteau of the company's original title The Great Grimsby Coal, Salt and Tanning Company. Formed in 1873 as a co-operative of fishing vessel owners, it was a communal best-value support services company involved in servicing and supplying a variety of products and services for fleets, fishing, and other vessels, providing:
Salt - to preserve the food and fish caught
Tanning - to waterproof sails and rope
Coal - to fire the vessels and galleys
Clothing
The Explore,
This would have been my 3rd visit & after my last visit cut short due to secca. I got a message from a known explorer who wanted to check out the place i thought this would be another chance to get some better photos. We spent a good 4 hours in here as the building is pretty big.
A few of us messing around ,
Thanks for looking
