<em>In the later 1860s the vestry lit the town with gas supplied by the Mitcheldean Gas Light and Coke Co., which had been formed in 1865 and which built its works east of the town in Brook Street. (fn. 130) The works, which passed into private hands before 1897, supplied gas to shops and houses in the parish and to the Wilderness. (fn. 131) At nationalization in 1948 they ceased to manufacture gas but were used for storage until c. 1970 when the site was incorporated in the Rank Xerox factory. </em></p>
