'''Guiseley Silica''' is listed in the RCH 1938 Handbook of Stations as having a private siding at Kidderminster. The Handbook also notes that [[General Refractories]] had a business accessed via (or sharing) the Guiseley Silica private siding. There is no information on the exact location of the siding, although Kelly's directory of 1936 lists Guiseley Silica Co. Ltd. as crushed gravel merchants with the address as Hoo Road.<ref>[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1KKjFjKSzAa9_XQnL2HeRNwZ-QsaPkqvn/view Kelly's Directory of Worcestershire 1936] (Retrieved 4 May 2021)</ref>..
A winding up notice for The Guiseley Silica Company Limited appeared in the London Gazette on 28 November 1939. The meeting was held at the offices of General Refractories Limited in Sheffield,<ref>[https://www.thegazette.co.uk/London/issue/34742/page/7989/data.pdf The London Gazette]</ref> further suggesting a relationship existed between the two companies.
