Prior to ATP using the factory it was a home to Bloxwich Lock,Which later became Bloxwich Engineering.

The extension to the frontage housed a short lived venture by the firm into the world of fast food.Selling cooked german sausage.I think it was called The Wurst Place.But I am going back to the 1980s and the memory is not what it once was.

The Warehouse was a later extension to the Factory built on the site of the Hednesford Gas works and later on the Mines Rescue Station.

The new site at Cannock Wood.
