Hi Does anyone have any information about any asbestos present at Littlebrook D power station, particularly when it was constructed in late 1970s? Thanks

I worked for Magnox Remote Operations at FRED between 2000 to 2002, then following it’s planned closure, moved to Manox (now NRS) site at Dungeness A Site.
I’m amazed by the technology that we used, designed and developed there.
Much of that technology advantage was lost, and we’re just implementing similar (but lighter, more reliable) developments now.
Very clever people and always friendly.

I was a carpenter and the convenor of shop stewards working on the construction of Littlebrook ‘D’ for M. J. Gleeson Ltd. from 1976 until 1980. I was blacklisted for trade union activities as a result and found it difficult to get work on other sites, despite every employer I did work for telling me what a good chippy I was. I went back into education and eventually ended up as a Senior University Lecturer in social sciences. The blacklist was finally uncovered in 2009 by the Information Commissioner’s Office. After 30 years, a file was still being kept on me showing that I was originally blacklisted by Gleeson’s on that site. Along with other building workers, I sued the employers in the High Court for misuse of personal information.

I worked here for 2 months in 1982 as a Site Engineer for Aiton of Derby who carried out the installation of the pipework systems. Great experience and interesting project to work on.

I’m so grateful for you taking these pictures. I worked at Magnox Remote Ops from 1997 to 1998 and I’ve been telling people about the amazing robots and model pressure vessel etc… But sadly had no pictures of my own. Now I can finally show them what it was like!
