My parents were friends with Sidney and Edith Woodall who were caretakers of the factory in the early 1960s. Their daughter showed me around the factory at night, piles of chains, swarf etc. - very atmospheric. I still have a Tinsley metal watering can. A new housing estate now stands where the factory and caretaker's house were.
