Description: Monckton Coking Plant This plant is the last remaining UK coking plant that is not cirectly connected with the steel industry. Principal products are smokeless fuels and the benzene-related petrochemicals. Gas from the coking process also powers a modern generating unit allowing electricity to be produced and fed into the national grid. The view is from the site of the former Monckton Colliery to which the coking plant was originally attached.
