Eva brothers

been covered just a few times this one but here is my take

Established in 1898 Eva Brothers Ltd was a traditional Forge specialising in the forging of stainless steel, nickel and other alloys. Their Manchester base was known as Crabtree Forge, and was one of the last traditional forge works to remain in the area. The piston con-rods for the Titanic were forged at this site. After the demise of Steam locomotives in the 1960s, traditional work slowed down and the company began focusing on the automotive industry. They made various car equipment, and blanks for forging car parts. In 1960, Eva Brothers changed its name to Eva Industries. The company eventually closed down in 2005

Thats another one done!, thanks for looking.​

Always meant to go and have a look when I'm in Manc, I guess this time of year would be better once the greenery has died down a bit.
