A vast quantity of Dowty documents are held at the Hub and funding was obtained to catalogue them. The talk will give a history of the Dowty Group which was a major aerospace and engineering manufacture founded in Gloucestershire by Sir George Dowty. There will be an opportunity to look at some of the documents and have a tour of the archives.

Note that the meeting will take place at the Heritage Hub, Alvin Street and not at the Guildhall cinema.
