The Lion Salt Works continued in use for the commercial production of salt until 1986, when closure was necessitated largely as a result of the loss of its main markets in West Africa during the civil war in Nigeria. The works was acquired subsequently by Vale Royal Borough Council to prevent the demolition and ultimate loss of the site, with an intention that it should become a working museum. In 1993, the management of the site was passed to the Lion Salt Works Trust, which was set up by Cheshire County Council and Vale Royal Borough Council. In 2005, a successful application to the Heritage Lottery Fund secured funding urgently required to repair the buildings. The immense archaeological and historical significance of the site as the last surviving inland open-pan salt works in England is reflected in its designation as a Scheduled Monument (No 1020841). The component structures, including the pan houses, a salt store, brine tank, bore holes, pump house, boiler house, manager's office, and a smithy, have further statutory designation as Grade II listed buildings, and also lie within the Marston Conservation Area. In addition, the site contains well-preserved buried remains of the nineteenth-century Alliance Salt Works, which occupied the area prior to the construction of the Lion Salt Works in 1894. en https://ariadne-infrastructure.eu/aocat/Resource/ADS/35915F59-0C0B-333E-B8B1-EC53E6921D03 https://ariadne-infrastructure.eu/aocat/Collection/ADS/5910411B-ED97-364E-8D28-6024558AA14B 2016-11-25 https://doi.org/10.5284/1020861 en 2016-11-25 ceramic https://ariadne-infrastructure.eu/aocat/Concept/ADS/CERAMIC field observation (visual assessment) https://ariadne-infrastructure.eu/aocat/Concept/ADS/FIELD%20OBSERVATION%20%28VISUAL%20ASSESSMENT%29 photographic survey https://ariadne-infrastructure.eu/aocat/Concept/ADS/PHOTOGRAPHIC%20SURVEY salt works https://ariadne-infrastructure.eu/aocat/Concept/ADS/SALT%20WORKS trial trench https://ariadne-infrastructure.eu/aocat/Concept/ADS/TRIAL%20TRENCH 1118090 Not provided https://ariadne-infrastructure.eu/aocat/Agent/NOTPROVIDED Archaeology Data Service https://ariadne-infrastructure.eu/aocat/Agent/Archaeology%20Data%20Service dataset provided record https://ariadne-infrastructure.eu/aocat/Concept/AO_Type/provided%20record Oxford Archaeology (North) https://ariadne-infrastructure.eu/aocat/Agent/Oxford%20Archaeology%20%28North%29 England Lion Salt Works, MARSTON, Cheshire, Cheshire West and Chester, England 53.275184826223 -2.4946919458605 53.275184826223 -2.4946919458605 1901 20th century 2000 http://n2t.net/ark:/99152/p0kh9dstg2x 1894 20th century 2016-11-25 OBIB 2011-12/1242 https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q21 England Text https://ariadne-infrastructure.eu/aocat/Concept/AO_DataType/Text e8407de9d880ce345d818f2e4cfd9ad9cc407e43e0b8ccb96d7668fb6418a1bc 58918826b3a8111585ca7b23f8872eedb4205afda6def615cf3895e41877afb9 Site/monument 8b0e187565957cf94883f577345351140b4a6d7c81d47b5fa50d2d0eb35f522b Site/monument 1a759e816df0daf4bb75551513aa73e530a94ae29664a9492427c2a667085caf Site/monument 297c16b3c504db9bb9daf96dacc76bba5a26543328df3d258e3bb32f1333e6fb Site/monument 17c4ab7648d81be8852042798efa6bec9d6d6e633961e6171ab38a26dc173145 Site/monument 38ad76516f1a4d9725ae5bdd64024c6f26f4cedcd2df07709326d52ab90f7cc6 Site/monument 6a8310dd61e0f116da8c7c7f34d2aab571770f8ec68971ed9ba9ebfc0f794ff1 Site/monument -2.5 53.266667 -2.5 53.266667 Northwich 17f115c75db2b27086f117e8bc40fe3ea3d3a976a5dfed670fdb0c067586158a -2.505948 53.281147 -2.505948 53.281147 Vale Royal, Marston d39bae61967c086db7dac740449831137ff546a6ddd6148875d16a9f4d99c5da -2.487408 53.273223 -2.487408 53.273223 Cheshire, Vale Royal, Wincham, N of Bridge No 192 2651a6c8e35e8a553cebad458206e0d429ebda46733214e1679daaf1b27d07fe -2.483565 53.283595 -2.483565 53.283595 Cheshire, Vale Royal, Marston, Marston Lodge Farm, junction with Earles Lane and Marston Lane a94483875688e3019fdc7cc76b889169a0c1ad3652818a4720a78a54f6f5ab18 -2.491465 53.285711 -2.491465 53.285711 Cheshire, Vale Royal, Marston, Higher Marston cross, Marston Lane junction 0c2ca18f79edd30b84cc9be82d81a9ac122f330d41df87fbec5108ca67d3dc6b -2.476822 53.265364 -2.476822 53.265364 England, CHESHIRE WEST AND CHESTER, CHESHIRE WEST AND CHESTER, NORTHWICH 33e1b9af59efa804ed0e3b4728cda62001862635d3ec41490207132b43e048b9 -2.491919 53.274292 -2.491919 53.274292 England, CHESHIRE WEST AND CHESTER, CHESHIRE WEST AND CHESTER, MARSTON f8f8c81f06e28f2549144b9a5590276b9d2b16df1ef716ffb2ae1bdb7a34ab03 England, CHESHIRE WEST AND CHESTER, CHESHIRE WEST AND CHESTER, NORTHWICH -2.53231 53.266028 -2.53231 53.266028 -2.473813 53.264477 -2.473813 53.264477 e41fe9af8d2d0b731ee09f3f230d5d60aedd1888c1b51d32fc4d60fc128baa02 -2.482931 53.275228 -2.482931 53.275228 England, CHESHIRE WEST AND CHESTER, CHESHIRE WEST AND CHESTER, WINCHAM e228e400718209eca71f3afcff06f24400d84d696580f0d526175adf2d99a524 -2.5053 53.264347 -2.5053 53.264347 England, CHESHIRE WEST AND CHESTER, CHESHIRE WEST AND CHESTER, NORTHWICH ec961dd30e9eff52389d893f928b8dc9e2cf9eb08421b4fe8462af5611542d9a -2.512786 53.263417 -2.512786 53.263417 England, CHESHIRE WEST AND CHESTER, CHESHIRE WEST AND CHESTER, NORTHWICH 5a2104dc8d0d8814f0da896a9228c2655e19579fdcd0d5b5656f63b79f4999e5 -2.493291 53.274916 -2.493291 53.274916 England, CHESHIRE WEST AND CHESTER, CHESHIRE WEST AND CHESTER, MARSTON 179acd94608b62a0d3ada809c0ed6bcba6a7103fe479373cd0f1f80ea22653b1 -2.493759 53.27513 -2.493759 53.27513 England, CHESHIRE WEST AND CHESTER, CHESHIRE WEST AND CHESTER, MARSTON 0fc31532e8cde9aaee4dccbbd4561c50152fa40578987ca5e9c0dfec7d24761d England, CHESHIRE WEST AND CHESTER, CHESHIRE WEST AND CHESTER, NORTHWICH -2.53231 53.266028 -2.53231 53.266028 -2.476802 53.263566 -2.476802 53.263566 2f988acfe60ef5f7d49999bcd62679c29d459cf459bf1348e6671e9277ebd038 379f9dd5d588e58f40bb81d7fdcbdf8e0783085a1a88561b9a315de1b2fb5f3c p0kh9dstg2x United Kingdom 1901 20th Century 39059 1 1901, 2000 1901 (Year: 1901) 2000 (Year: 2000) 20th Century Heritage Data | Linked Data Vocabularies for Cultural Heritage 20th Century (en) United Kingdom
