I am researching the firm of J. R. Gaunt & Son Ltd., of Warstone Parade Works, Warstone Parade East, B18 6NU, who at their peak were the largest manufacturers of Military Accoutrements in the British Empire. The works filled the top end of Warstone Parade East, extending back to Pemberton (formally Alfred) Street, off Warstone Lane, beside the cemetery in the Jewellery Quarter.
Does anyone have any images of Warstone Works, especially photographs, internal or external? Built in 1913, the building was unfortunately demolished in 1982.
I am also interested in advertising literature of any type or era that the company produced or any other records to do with them and tracing anyone who may have worked there before the company moved to the Icknield Street site.
