CUMBRIA. A view along the route of the Brampton pipeline, showing pipelaying equipment in the foreground lowering the pipeline into a trench.
In 1975, Laing Pipelines laid the Brampton gas pipeline between Longtown near Carlisle to the east of Bishop Auckland. The pipeline is a section of the Frigg pipeline carrying natural gas from the North Sea to near Peterhead in Scotland. The headquarters for the Laing contract was located at an old quarry near Brampton
