A Matthew Swain gully grating cover at Willowfield Street. The first I’ve seen and, looking very similar to a Millfield product Image, I almost missed it. There are very few internet references to this foundry at Newton Heath, Manchester. Some call it the “Railway Foundry” but a search for that name produces references to Mather & Platt Image and Image The substantial factory may be seen here https://www.flickr.com/photos/clivehurst/32862214470/in/photolist-22xDZu1-S4VrsE-cJYmRQ-bypfFJ-9cEbHg-PEzsjE-BSD7Cd-Rncvh1-MNvCJ1-fFvDQ5-ZJFQgZ-W1pLLh-byEqtX-WgfCFR-b9w5F4-cJYdvW-rHCk9Z.
