Monifieth Foundry

“I have noted with interest the items about Monifieth Foundry,” emails David Middleton. “I wonder if any of your readers would have information relating to Monifieth Foundry and the Radar Installations of the Second World War.

“My information comes from a steel erector who worked for the Caledon S&E Structures Dept. on these aerial tower installations throughout the UK. Monifieth Foundry was mentioned as making some of the parts.

“At the start of the war, the Caledon Co. was, secretly, designated a Ministry of Aircraft production research firm.”
