Bradbury Wilkinson (Thanks to Peter Goodchild and Helen Charlton-Wright for the photo of Violet Sheldon (of New Malden)
Thanks to Peter for this fine archive of photos providing a glimpse into the secret world behind the doors of 'the fortress'. There are TWO separate slide shows here so don't miss the second below.
In addition, Helen Charlton-Wright has forwarded a picture of her mother, Violet, working at Bradbury Wilkinson in the 1950s and we are pleased to be able to include it.
Violet Sheldon was born in New Malden in 1939 so is probably about 20 years old in the photo. Sadly, Violet passed away on the 27/12/23 aged 84. R.I.P.
