Gas lighting was not new in 1900, electricity was already replacing it.

The innovation here is a machine which stokes the boiler instead of having men with shovels do it.

There's a gasometer on the 25" on Pierhead Road in Ferrybank, but no gasworks. Gasworks are on Harbour road on the south side.

Streetview of the carpark where the gas works were on the 25" and Cassini (so up to 1930s at least).
