Abstract: Abstract James and Breasley Limited is a well-known name in the West Country. Its incorporation dates back to 1876, and its products have both a national and international reputation. When these products pass through its gates, they are usually very large and require special transportation, and many of the locals stand by to watch. The company is engaged in heavy constructional engineering production, with the emphasis between the turn of the century and immediately before the Second World War on bridges, but with the current emphasis on a wide range of products, including constructional work for nationalised undertakings, such as the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority.
