Bow Common Gasworks
c.1850 The works at Bow Common were engineered by Alexander Angus Croll who was also contractor. Owned by Great Central Gas Consumers Co
Although successful in reducing the price of gas as promised, the Great Central suffered because of it - Bow Common works fell into disrepair.
1870 After the passing of the City Gas Act, the Gas Light and Coke Co amalgamated with the Great Central Gas Consumers Co[1]
