Cosalt October 2015

[Urban_Explorer]

The name Cosalt was a portmanteau of the company's original title The Great Grimsby Coal, Salt and Tanning Company. Formed in 1873 as a co-operative of fishing vessel owners, it was a communal best-value support services company involved in servicing and supplying a variety of products and services for fleets, fishing, and other vessels, providing:

Salt - to preserve the food and fish caught

Tanning - to waterproof sails and rope

Coal - to fire the vessels and galleys

Fingers crossed these places will still be doable!
