Dear John,
I enjoyed your history of the Argyll factory. My father worked in it when it was the RNTF as a turner in the 40s and 50s untill he sadly died when I was nine and we left for Birmingham, where my mother was born.
I have always been fastinated with the biulding and was delighted when once on another holiday with my family in Scotland I discovered it had been re opened as a retail outlet and I was actually able to go into it and walk the stairs that my father had done when he worked there.
Thanks for the story.
Sincerely. Jim Hamilton
