Abstract:
During the course of my researches Into the hearthstone mining and building stone quarrying industries of Surrey, I had cause to meet the late Major Edgar Taylerson, formerly managing director of the by then wound up Dorking Greystone Lime Co. Ltd., of Betchworth In Surrey. The company, which had been Incorporated In 1865, had during Its lifetime of almost a century a remarkable history of commercial and technological flair. There were early links with Sussex Interests, including collaboration with the Sub Wealden Gypsum Co. Ltd., with which company the 'Dorking Greystone' exchanged locomotives, and developed a trade-marked brand of wall plaster (Sirapite - the word is derived from 'Paris'!). The Dorking company built one of the earlier limeworks hydrating plants at Betchworth in 1924, and appears at least within Surrey and Sussex to have been seen as something of a pioneer to whom requests for advice were often sent. At this date, It was still the general practice for limeworks to send lump or ground quicklime to their customers, which customers had then to hydrate the material for themselves. There were predictable accidents when consignments were sent off, inadequately sheeted, in rainy weather!
On the commercial front, in addition to collaboration with the Sussex gypsum mines, the 'Dorking' company was a prominent voice in the some-time Greystone Limeburners' Association, and files relating to that body contain material relevant to the study of limeworks throughout the home counties. And the directors at Betchworth operated a programme of buying-up or considering for purchase smaller works in Kent, Surrey and Sussex, or converting privately operated concerns Into subsidiary or associated limited companies. One such was the firm of George Newington & Co. Ltd., of Giynde in Sussex. Finally, the 'Dorking' company, which at Its peak of development before the Second World War had a staff In excess of 50 persons, and workshop and laboratory facilities, provided advice, contracted for repair works, and provided a chemical analysis service.
