Her grandmother died in the First World War she was making bombs for the troops to use. The factory caught fire with a faulty fuse two hundred and fifty women – what did they die for? But their names are not on a memorial plaque, on the memorial arch there are men on the front they are not on the back. Men could not fight if bombs were not made.
