Summary

Surprising as it may seem, the story of the birth of the Enfield Lock armoury in 1816 and the methods of manufacture that then existed within the British small arms industry has never been completely told. As well as being the story of the history of the Royal Small Arms Factory, this book also looks at the efforts of four local businessmen who had the vision, courage and tenacity to take on the mammoth task of rescuing the grade two listed building in order to turn it into a vibrant and sustainable business for the benefit of the local community.
