On the south edge of Ascog Bay on the Isle of Bute is a unique site – the mostly unaltered ruins of a salt panhouse. Three hundred years ago salt was made in this building by boiling sea water in iron pans, with coal supplied from a nearby mine. #CoastArch #HESSupported #CoastalErosion 🏺🌊🧂

Nantwich was known for production of high-quality salt, made using brine from local springs, evaporated over wood fires. At its peak there were over 200 ‘wich’ (salt-making) houses in the town. Pictured is the Museum's section of an ancient 'salt ship', used for storing salt.
