Could you possibly upload them to http://pyrobin.com/ please? Then many more interested parties could view them, with little or no expense to yourself ;)

Cheers.

Nothing remains of the old Breocks site although another company has licensed a pyrotechnic factory near to where they were based but simply havent got around to developing and building the place yet.

My old boss at Astra used to work for Brocks, we were talking about Swaffham only very recently and he described the set up to me. From what I know they used to extrude-fill the fireworks on that site. I did have an old plan (original one too) but I lent it to a shit of a man which, along with a fairly large label collection, he kept. Don't trust anyone!



My mum and dad who used to work at Brocks, Swaffham, said that yes they did used to extrude-fill the fireworks on site. If you want to know anything else, just ask and I will ask them.

Thanks for that Mortartube.

All the help offered is appreciated.

As far as I am aware, one of the Brocks (possibly Andrew) now works in the tobacco industry. This came from a member of the firework industry who has met him.

I will have to check my info next time we chat.
