Dedicated To...

The Groves & Whitnall Globe Works website is dedicated to my father, Rodney E Richards, who I have many very fond memories of bottle digging with throughout my childhood, without his support & dedication I would not have been involved in the hobby & this website would not have been created, he is sorely missed by all within the Bottle Collecting hobby that knew him.

A huge dedication is also given to also given to the employees of Groves & Whitnall Ltd of Salford & Manchester who lost their lives in the service of their country in the First and Second World War's, let their sacrifice never be forgotten.
