1940s Factory Industry Shed Work Conveyor Belt Rollers Vats
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling Kirdford Growers works machinery on a crisp autumn day in 1949. The George Garland Collection, carefully preserved by the West Sussex Record Office, offers us a glimpse into the heart of this industrial hub that once thrived in West Sussex. The image showcases an array of fascinating elements that defined the era's manufacturing landscape. A large factory building stands tall against the sky, its sturdy structure housing a multitude of sheds and workstations where skilled workers operated heavy machinery with precision and expertise. The rhythmic hum of engines fills the air as conveyor belts tirelessly transport materials from one end to another. Rollers spin effortlessly, their purpose evident as they aid in streamlining production processes. Vats stand stoically nearby, ready to accommodate various components necessary for creating products that would soon find their way into homes across the region. While we do not have information about the specific company associated with this photograph, it is clear that Kirdford Growers played a significant role in driving local industry during this time period. As we admire this snapshot frozen in history, let us appreciate both the ingenuity and hard work invested by those who contributed to West Sussex's thriving industrial sector throughout the 1940s.
