An interesting little update on this, I do voluntary work at the Helicopter Museum in Weston Super Mare, Somerset. Last Sunday, one of the visitors was a gentleman who was visiting from Blackburn. When I explained that I was from Accrington, and that I was recently querying Wellington Bomber production up there, he said "my dad used to work at Howard and Bulloughs and he worked on Wellingtons". I thought 'what an amazing coincidence' to meet someone like this and so far from Lancashire. However, before I could get to talk to him any further, he got dragged away by family and was gone!
