Google map, the location of 20th C. British glass works.

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps/ms?hl=en&gl=uk&ie=UTF8&oe=UTF8&msa=0&msid=107252480432088031064.000436774851e1015c810

Cumbria Crystal seems to have migrated itself from Ulverston to a field somewhere just north of Grasmere - that'll bemuse the sheep. Wink

Are the locations supposed to be representitive of the area where the works were or the exact location? Because the one for Chance is a good mile out.

The location of the Edison Swan (EDISWAN) factory is incorrect. It was in Duck Lees Lane near to the River Lee. I used to live in Durants Road and passed the factory regularly. I actually went there on a school visit in about 1945. For more info see www.glassmaking-in-london.co.uk in the section on Later and Peripheral Glasshouses.
Nothing wrong with the Google map though. sleep
