Newport Royal Ordnance Factory, 1937

Description

Aerial view looking northwest over the future site of the World War II Royal Ordnance Factory, taken in September 1937, a full two and a half years before construction started. Note how the site has clearly been earmarked for the factory - streets of houses are unfinished and valuable building land near the centre of Newport is left unused
