A web-based historical manufacturing research project started by a former Solihull man, Nigel Hinton, Chartered Accountant, has become the inspiration for a book and a play. The story of Silhouette was featured by BBC1 on Inside Out recently.
The play is about to start its second run of performances at the new Theatre Severn in Shrewsbury on 28th February 2010 and has sold out.
The website is www.madeinshrewsbury.co.uk and the book, Silhouette the story of the Little X, is available to order at all good book shops.Nigel has co-written with David Trumper and published “Historical Hostelries” a guide to the historical Shrewsbury pubs in the loop of the river Severn.
“Silhouette” the story of the Little X is distributed by Ludlow Books in Ludlow.

I have had a request from Mr Bryan Homer now of Rugby for information on Farnborough House School . Bryan and his brother were there in 1939/1940and remember being evacuated to Tewkesbury. As far as I know all the Greenmore and related records and photographs ended up in a skip except a few that were liberated by some former pupils who were passing when the skips were being loaded.
Please email me if you have any information on old school documents locations that I can pass onto Bryan.
