DECOMMISSIONED IS A new book by
IGEM’S HISTORY PANEL CONTRIBUTES photographer Laura Fisher, serving
TO NEW GASHOLDER PHOTOBOOK as a visual archive documenting the
remaining gasholders across England,
Scotland and Wales.
Six years in the making (2015 - 2021)
and covering 120 gasholder sites,
it takes viewers on a chronological
journey covering an area from
Plymouth to Inverness.
By 2025, most of these iconic
structures will be consigned only
to memory, leaving a gap in the
UK landscape.
Laura said: “As a photographer I felt
compelled to record these industrial
icons for future generations. I felt
a huge responsibility in doing this,
wanting to show my passion for them
and by doing them justice.”
The IGEM History Panel provided
invaluable historical insight into the
production of this book and also made
a generous donation towards printing
costs along with other sponsors.
The first edition is limited to 500
copies with a foreword by Professor
Russell Thomas.
The book can be ordered direct
from Laura Fisher via email at
