Asbestos to Blame for DeathA former factory worker died as a result of exposure to asbestos while he worked in Workington, an inquest heard.
Allan McFarland of Broadacres in Harrington, died at home in October, aged 70.
He was diagnosed with the industrial disease mesothelioma in 2004, and fibres of asbestos were found in his lung tissue during a post mortem.
Mr McFarland was born in Workington, the youngest of nine children, and grew up in Great Clifton.
He left school at 17, and started an apprenticeship at High Duty Alloys in Workington – on the site of what is now Alcan Pechiney.
