Preston Salt Pans 2024
Although it’s now over 150 years since the fires went out on Sir Robert Preston's salt pans, the old works are still well preserved and well worth a visit. In Scotland, salt making and coal mining went hand in hand as you needed at least 6 tons of coal to produce just 1 ton of salt – hence the reason, in times past, salt was so expensive.
