Stratford Past & Present - the Gasometers




These Gasometers are now unused but listed, I recommend reading Diamond Geezer on the subject. Gas used to be stored in the massive tanks which would rise and fall with usage. Sunday afternoons, you could watch them drop.

I'm glad they're listed. We had at least one in Vancouver but it's long gone.
