Is it spelled Brook or Brooke in your reference? I have the latter.

At last some got it. We have the Brook / Dorland assembly drawings in the archive, but I have not seen these photos, what is the title of the book please?

You can tell a builder from an archaeologist by the size of his trowel. Mine is a small one!

Paul

The book is 'An Industrial War Record' by Stewarts & Lloyds.

I imagine those pictures could still be in their archive in Corby, PB may know.

Some interesting facts & figures in it like making 380 miles of pipe for FIDO, 30,000,000 tubular units for shell & bomb bodies.

I'll bring the book to the meeting on the 17th so you can have a look.

A Brook hangar (named after its inventor) being constructed from tubular steel. Is this right?
