From the Wikipedia article
Teesside Beam Mill (TBM) is a steel reheating and rolling plant located at Lackenby, on Teesside, North Yorkshire, England. The plant was set up in the 1950s by the Dorman Long company and began full production in 1958, making beams for building projects. The plant produces around 750,000 tonnes (830,000 tons) of steel products per year, and is the United Kingdom's only producer of large steel sections for the building industry.

Groundwork for the beam plant was started by Dorman Long in 1954, with the mill being built from 1955 onwards. The mill was completed in 1958, with an eventual cost of £18 million. It was built adjacent to the Lackenby steel plant to enable steel ingots to be shipped in to the facility from the open-hearth plant…
