CAS[w] - Parnall's 1941 Memorial, Yate

19 Oct 2017 1 403
The casualty lists from the two main air raids on the Yate factory of Parnall Aircraft. There was a lot of damage to the machine shops. Shortly after the March raid most of the work was transferred to "Magnol Products" a nearby shadow factory, most of which was in a mine for protection. My grandfather, father and one uncle worked at Magnol, although later in WW2 my father and uncle were employed by Newmans, who were next door to Parnall's establishment in Yate.
