Superb Picture of The Old Factory

Lancashire Dynamo Nevelin c1955
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

I started work at LDN in 1956 in the accounts dept. working with Hugh "Mac" Andrews, Laurence Forbes Ritte, Janet Kenward, Mike Chandler - I can't remember what he did!
I joined the army in 1958 (National Service) and returned to LDN in 1960. I recall Barbara Harling on the switchboard, Joyce Bellingham in accounts? Mr & Mrs Fair who lived near the Diamond, also "Ricky" Ricmond! Jack Thomas (Manager of Holland Rovers FC), his wife's name I can't remember. Returned to LDN in in 1960, worked in the wages dept./Shipping Dept. Names I remember from that time - Frank Clatworthy, Fred Street, Peter Young (Company Secretary). Following the transfer of LDN to Foster Transformers at Wimbledon in 1965 I then moved to International Rectifier next door. Alas the old factory (LDN) is no more. Following an arson attack last year the building has been demolished. If anybody reads this maybe we could have an LDN reunion?
