Heritage
Redditch, in the Midlands of England is situated on the outskirts of UK’s second city, Birmingham with excellent road, rail and air routes.
With the industry dating back to the 18th Century, Redditch is regarded as the birthplace of wire forming. In the beginning it was the River Arrow, a valuable source of energy, that helped Redditch become the centre of excellence for needle making.
This needle making expertise expanded into general fine wire forming expertise, suppliers and infrastructure grew around it.
The Herbert Terry and Sons Spring Company became one of the biggest and best-known spring makers in the world, thanks partly to its association with the Anglepoise Lamp and partly as a key supplier to the UK military effort in WW2.
Post war many people disseminated from Terry’s and other major manufacturers to start their own businesses and spring manufacturing businesses companies began to populate the Redditch industrial landscape.
In 1946, Theodore Clifford became such person forming a company that was to become Clifford Springs.
