Compare this view with the one under title of 'National Projectile Factory 1921', and you would be virtually looking at the same location.
Here is the fairly newly constructed concrete Marshgate Bridge - which carries the date of "1935" by the way. So just to the close left of the bridge on the north side is where the Lesney Matchbox factory was built. |
