Peter (and anyone else interested),
Riden and Owen 1995, 'British Blast Furnace Statistics 1790-1980' does exactly what it says on the tin. But only for blast furnaces of course, and it is organised by site so you would have to skim through the whole lot to extract the information for specific years. From 1854 onwards it relies on the published annual 'Mineral Statistics', so the volumes for 1891 and 1892 should be an easier source for your purposes if you have easy access to them.
Best,
David

#yiv4636125710 A request for help: I have been working on late
19th century iron and steel production
statistics. One of the primary sources is the Annual
Statistical Report of British Iron Trade Association.
Their published volumes are extremely scarce. Between
British Library, Mitchell Library at Glasgow (whose copies
after 1893 may be unique survivals) and NEIMME at Newcastle
(whose copy of the 1881 volume may be a unique survival), I
have seen copies of all volumes for the full run of this
periodical (from 1877 to 1905), but have failed to locate
any copy of the volumes for 1891 or 1892. Does anyone know
of any surviving copies of those two volumes?
Alternatively, does anyone know of later compilations that
might have been made from them, before Mitchell & Deane,
Abstract of British Historical Statistics. I have a
copy of a tabulation, provided by the Iron and Steel
Statistics Bureau, but would like to be able to get back to
their primary sources, which they cannot provide.
