Thank you for replying, I'd love to hear any memories you have. How many people worked there, what happened to the company? Do you remember my grandfather (the last John Baker)? We used to spend Christmases there in the fifties and sixties when he lived at Whirlow Lane. Anything you can remember really.
Best regards
Nick Baker (middle name John)
Does anyone have any memories of this company, engaged in the manufacture of files until the early seventies, I believe. This was the family business, established in 1837. I'm desperate for any information, however slight.
