Emerson & Renwick

Anyone out there work here, apart from our own webmaster?

I did, for a wonderful 4 MONTHS, back in 1989. When I was taken on, part time office, the firm was buzzing. Then the trend became "paint your walls" - so wallpaper wasnt being bought. Emerson made wall paper making machinery! Hence the redundancies! Pity, cos I really did like the job.

Here is a photo of where they started out! St James Street!
