Description: | The majority of the volumes in this sub-series comprise fixed assets registers compiled for machinery and plant and for electrical plant at each of Joseph Sankey & Sons Ltd Works - Albert Street, Bankfield, Manor Works and Hadley Castle Works. There are separate registers for each Works, and for Machinery and Plant and Electrical Plant. Each of these registers is divided by workshop or division, and entries list the machinery or other equipment purchased, with details of machine number; department; description of the item and the name of the supplier; the date the equipment was purchased; the cost; any additions; and the depreciation in value of the item. There are also sections for machinery supplied or extensions to the plant in order to manufacture particular products for government contracts, such as aircraft spinners and other equipment for the armed forces during the Second World War.
Other volumes in the series contain details of property at each of the firm's Works. There is also a volume containing details of government plant assets, containing information about machinery and equipment purchased through government assistance schemes in order to fulfil government contracts. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/uk/ | Publisher: | Wolverhampton Archives | Rights holder: | Wolverhampton Archives | Temporal: | 1906-1953 | Source: | Black Country History | Identifier: | http://www.blackcountryhistory.org/colle... | Go to resource |
