The Maryport Advertiser November 3rd 1882 Accident at the New Steelworks

Accident at the New Steelworks

On Tuesday morning last an accident occurred at the New Steel  Works, Workington.  A man named Charles DIAMOND was engaged as one of the wagon tippers.  Some of the wagons laden with earth were proceeding down an incline, when he   attempted to uncouple two of them. While doing so he thoughtlessly placed his  foot upon the rail, the consequence being that he was knocked down and his leg   fearfully bruised.  He was conveyed home in a cart, and his injuries attended to by a  medical man. __________________
