My dad was a brickie in there for a while when I was 5 or 6 year old. He was never good at getting up on time, ICI had a bus/van going round picking the latecomers up, early 60's. He soon called it a day and worked for himself.
His older brother was killed in an industrial accident, crushed, in the 1940's on the Billingham site.
My grandad worked on the Billingham site, came from Jarrow originally, one of thousands of economic migrants that made up the town.
I spent the first six weeks of my working life in Chilton House in the 70's. Worked on more plants than enough but never employed by ICI.
I thought the company treat the town shabbily when they pulled out.
