My uncle, Archie Sinclair, was an apprentice. Probably late 1930s. He was always proud of having been an apprentice there.

“My father Harry Ashmead & uncle William Ashmead were both apprentices at your factory in about 1911-1918. My father moved to Tewkesbury later to work at Thomas Walker & Sons who made Fairground products, eg. merry-go-rounds galloping horses!”
