Glazebury explosives depot is one of Orica's main UK depots, and is located just north of Culcheth in Lancashire.

Orica is probably the largest supplier of commercial explosives in the world, having acquired ICI's interest in this business in 1997 - ICI themselves having formerly acquired the same business when they took over Nobel's Explosives, located on the Ardeer Peninsula.

B5207 Wilton Ln., Culcheth, Lancs.
