Works
(Watch a Video at the end of the
article)
Work
on building the West Works that fronts on to the A38 Bristol Road
was started in December 1916 and was finished in June 1917. It was
paid for by the Government in the first World War to produce mainly
shells. Therefore it was one of the oldest building on the
Longbridge Site. Work on demolishing the site started in June 2006
and was completed by Christmas 2006.
