Hello, Is there any way to see this film. My grandfather worked there. Are there any other archives of employees?

Hi Paul, certainly, we now have a DVD of the tv documentary available from Beverley Tourist Information Centre (see our post for details https://trawlingthroughtime.org/2019/11/08/tv-times/ ). We mostly have archive material of ships plans, but it’s worth searching our archive catalogue to see if we have anything else relating to the company (https://www.eastriding.gov.uk/CalmView/advanced.aspx )
