One is the closure of the blast furnaces, steelmaking operations and Scunthorpe Rod Mill by early June 2025.

British Steel has announced a £50m upgrade of its Scunthorpe rod mill.

The company said it will consider whether to build a planned $45 million aluminum rod mill in an unspecified neighboring state instead of Missouri.

Now WPD has sold the site to Celsa, the company which runs the rod mill in Cardiff Bay.

Thus the small mill at Newburg grew from the capacity of turning out thirty tons of re-rolled rails to its present capacity of sixty tons, beside the addition of a puddling mill, a merchant bar mill, a wire rod mill, two blast furnaces, spike, nut and bolt works.
