Notes

The firm is thought to have been established at 11 Weaman Row in about 1890 as action makers. They produced actions for a range of top quality gunmakers. In about 1894 they moved to Lench Street, and from about 1900 also made barrels. At some time after 1932 the firm moved to 4 Sand Street. In about 1948 the firm closed and one of their customers, A A Brown, took over the premises, stock and machinery.
