Full Description
On the west side of Water Street, a short distance south from Montagu Street is the site of the foundry taken over by Timson, Bullock & Barber in 1927. Their successors, Timson Ltd, erected a large machine shop alongside and in the late 1990s redeveloped the foundry. It is now the only working foundry in the county. (1).
