At 15.09 hrs on Sunday 29th December 1940, the

which killed 13 male and 4 female employees. 
There were two bombs, one clipped the end of what
was known as "16 Shop" and the other fell on the
electrical substation just outside.

is a propeller shaped memorial to the 17 employees
that died in that incident - 13 male and 4
female.
