A coroner ruled a man would almost certainly have died of an industrial-related disease if a heart condition had not killed him first.
Deputy coroner David Hinchliff said Robert Asquith, 58, of Highfield Road, Elland, died of natural causes on April 6 last year, as a result of his coronary arteries thickening and becoming blocked.

But an inquest heard how Mr Asquith had been diagnosed with malignant mesothelioma caused by his work with asbestos, from the mid 1970s to 2002.

Mr Hinchliff said: "The cause of death was natural but an industrial disease caused him a lot of distress in his life. I am in no doubt the mesothelioma, in a very short time, would have led to his death."
