The Iron Ore Quay in Roath Dock adjacent to the blast furnaces of Guest Keen Iron & Steel is clearly advantageous. Once the billets of steel are produced from iron ore they are transferred to the Castle Works of Guest Keen and Nettlefolds Limited next door ready for hot or cold rolling into sheets or sections, Also, the wire-drawing facility was included under the same roof.
