CWS Cabinet Works, Pelaw/Bill Quay

Built 1936 to produce the Co-op's home and commercial furniture, this factory replaced earlier ones in Pelaw as demand grew. During the second world war the factory turned to making parts for wooden gliders for the RAF.

 

After cabinet-making stopped the premises were taken over by Brentford Nylons, and latterly have become part of the Stonehills business park.
