Scope and Content Dalzell Steel Works, Motherwell, Lanarkshire Dalzell Steel Works was developed by David Colville and Son from 1880 to complement their existing malleable-iron works. A new large open hearth steel plant was installed in the 1914-18 War. After 1945 a new light-section mill was built by Colvilles Ltd. This view shows the frontage of the works to Park Street. The building on the extreme right is part of the offices, and the one on the left is the roll-turning shop. This treatment of the frontage buildings gives an impression of solidity and order which conceals the functional corrugated-iron-clad sheds housing the steel works plant.
