Does anyone know what Morley's contribution to the war effort was?

I know that Aristoc made barrage balloons and dinghies, etc., and I know about Collaro at Langley Mill.

What about any other of the local companies?

G.R.Turners made gun carriages.

The Coop Laundry looked after the American servicemen's uniforms!

scoured the library this morning on things about i&r morley...but nothing written about the war...but a little evidence states that they carried on making their own stuff but the materials were rationed.
