From Graces Guide

1821. CHESHIRE SALT COMPANY (Limited), Winsford, Cheshire.

All improved steam apparatus for the manufacture of salt.

This Company are manufacturers of table, butter, common, and fishery salt, by a patent steam process, and proprietors of MESSRS. JUMP and HALL'S PATENT FIRE-FEEDERS.

MACHINERY IN OPERATION:—

JUMP and HALL'S PATENT STEAM-PAN, for the manufacture of fine or table salt.

STEAM-PANS ATTACHED TO THE BOILING PAN, for the purpose of making common or fishery salt.

JUMP AND HALL'S PATENT FIRE-FEEDER.

Samples of salt manufactured by the Cheshire Patent Salt Company (Limited).

These steam-pans and fire-feeders have been in successful operation for two years, and from the great economy in labour, wear and tear, fuel and heat, combined with their great simplicity of arrangement, they have proved themselves most valuable inventions.

The fire-feeders can be attached to any boiler, and can be seen daily at work at the Company's Works, at Winsford, Cheshire, where the whole of the salt-pans are erected on the patent steam principle.
