Arthur worked as a plater in the company’s fabrication division and also operated the press brake from time to time. MD Martin Hodgkinson is pictured here with Arthur after presenting him with a retirement gift and card from everyone in the company. Martin said that Arthur would be missed by all, although the fabrication shop would be a lot quieter without the sound of Arthur’s hammer.
