Description
English: The memorial to the workers who secretly produced over 2000 Supermarine Spitfires from 1940 in factories, a hotel, a bus depot and countless sheds and bedrooms following the destruction by the Luftwaffe of the central factory in Southampton. The towns of Trowbridge and Reading in Berkshire also assisted. The incredible story only came to public light after a documentary film was made about the venture in 2015.
