A Memory of Gatley.
When I put query re `Paint Factory in Gatley, it should have been Battery Factory. When Camel Accumulators were bombed in London 1941, they came to Gatley and had a factory behind St. James church (Gatley Grenn) I kepp getting closed doors when I make enquiries re Battery Factory which also became known as Duralife. It was demolished/ closed circa 1981/82, does anybody recall this factory?

I hope you are well. I remember Duralife very well indeed, especially the almost incessant buzz from it which I could hear from my mum and dad's bedroom. I remember it getting flooded when it was unoccupied and a number of rats swimming out of there. You used to get to it down the side of the Chocolate Box sweetshop.
Take care
