Hi all

I'm a new member to the Forum and am looking for a summary history of Royal Small Arms Repair Factory in Pimlico, London.

I'm particularly interested to know between which dates it operated, what work did they undertake and how was it arranged in association with the RSAFs at both Enfield and Birmingham. Also I would like to know the general size of its workforce and how it was managed over its history. Any photographs of the factory's exterior or interior would also be most helpful. I'm aware of the site's location in the former Colt's Factory on Mill Bank but am unsure as to when exactly it operated as the R.S.A.R.F. I have see various dates proposed for both its opening (1858 or 1860?) and closing (1866 or c.187Os). I believe that after its closure much of Pimlico's traditionally work was likely transferred to the R.S.A.F at Sparkbrook in Birmingham.

Thanks in advance

Mark
