Talk:Markham & Co.

Thanks for starting this one Tudorminstrel, was intending to dust off my Markham & Co book, as noticed a lack of firms associated with Chesterfield noted on the towns Wiki page, so have added Link on to Chesterfield page. --BulldozerD11 (talk) 13:36, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Just missed this. Would have been great to get this on the front page as a "Did you know". For future reference ... articles have to be less than 5 days old and have an inline cite for the key fact. But brill! Well done Victuallers (talk) 09:17, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

Couple of points; "Included in this was a 34 feet diameter drum, 7 feet larger than that which made William Oliver move to new premises." -but the bit about that drum doesn't appear in the article.

"as well as gun barrels, lathes and riffling machines for Cravens Ltd a sister company."- should that be gun barrel lathes and rifling machines, or did they make gun barrels? and machines that riffled... Ning ning (talk) 20:41, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

1st sections Tudors bit, I' have to read my book in depth for that one.

2nd ones mine, "Gun Barrel turning lathes" is what it should be (well spotted), fixed it now. - BulldozerD11 (talk) 21:41, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
