Was it a production plant or a yarn processing plant? and what was the 'Artificial Silk'? Acetate or Viscose? What was the company? Anyone help? Dave Trigg. Derby.	Triggy	Sunday 9th of February 2014 03:41:15 PM

Hello Tony D, Thank you for the suggestion. Please pin the image on the map if you are reasonably confident of its location, and the Cataloguing Team will have a look. Best regards, Regina Activity Team Support Officer	Regina Papachlimitzou	Thursday 25th of July 2013 03:23:15 PM

In the top third of the picture I found myself looking for the landmarks (e.g. windsock) of an airfield, but couldn't spot any. There appear to be two natural runways. The picture taken from south / south-west.	BigglesH	Tuesday 9th of July 2013 10:43:44 AM
I've looked (courtesy of Google) at site nowadays. It would still make a reasonable airfield, but would probably be opposed by locals (too close to Heathrow anyway).	BigglesH	Tuesday 9th of July 2013 10:43:44 AM
