ICI's Nobel division transported explosives from its factory at Ardeer, Ayrshire to its depot from 1953 until the1970's. The explosives were distributed from the Callerton depot, with offices at Street Houses, to mines all over the North East of England.
A full history of the ICI local operations can be found in the Ponteland Local History Society publication "Pont Island News 2010"
