[2] A Hollander beater ‘beating machine’ was installed to increase production.

The Mill had esparto and rag preparation capabilities, dusters, nine boilers for grass and rags, four potchers, fifteen beaters, chemical processing plant, gas works, two machines, mechanics shop, and offices on site.

Following these changes new effluent equipment and increased power was introduced to the mill.

This led to Inveresk gaining experience in running a mould machine, and they began making artist papers with the purchase of the TH Saunders business in 1959.

Hand made paper continued at St Cuthberts Mill into 1976.

After a rebuild, the mill turned to using the PM2 machine[citation needed] purely for the production of these papers.

[citation needed] "In 1990, Somerset paper was chosen for a fund-raising lithograph, based on watercolour paintings created by H.R.H.

The lithographs were produced on a 300gsm (140lb) paper grade, which incorporated not only the Somerset watermark, but the Prince of Wales’s own crest too.
