ABSTRACT

Early in 1905 the then Managing Director, Mr H. Cuthbert Hall, decided that a factory in London was advisable and the Works equipment was accordingly transferred from Chelmsford to a large four-storey, three-wing building at Dalston in North London. In this new factory, not only was the Company’s wireless equipment manufactured, but also a temporary entry was made into another promising new industry, for at this period the Company began the mass production of ignition coils for automobiles.
