A "landmark moment" has been announced for Sellafield’s Magnox plant in Cumbria as it was confirmed that it will stop reprocessing in July and enter a new era of clean-up and decommissioning.
The move will mark the end of an operational journey that began in 1964, the government has said.
The plant received and reprocessed nearly 55,000 tonnes of spent (or used) nuclear fuel from power stations across the country, and Italy and Japan.
