George Barnsley & Sons - Cornish Works - Sheffield - July 2010

"Look for the soggy Blonde"

George Barnsley's was founded in 1836, in the Kelham Island are of our beloved Sheffield. Their manufacturing included many leather crafting tools, aswell as files, knives, nails / tacks and many other handheld tools.
