Westonfront Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I used to work at GTP up until 1991 and now live in Herefordshire, I worked in both the heat treatment dept and finished off in the forge. Often wondered what happened to the old place and the lads I worked with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
