Title Under attack:: Thomas Williams (front row, third from left) in front of the anti aircraft guns at the Royal Ordnance Factory in Rotherwas
Description Under attack: Thomas Williams (front row, third from left) and his wife Florence worked at the Royal Ordnance Factory in Rotherwas. Although the gun was installed to protect the factory, it failed to counter an attack by a lone German bomber in June 1942. The bombing killed at least 16 factory workers and civilians. They were buried later at St Peter’s Church in Bullinghope. (Herefordshire Lore/H. Pinnell),
