ROF Stories

ROF Stories is a community memory project, sparked by the chance discovery of a private collection of wartime photographs. This curated selection of reminiscences from former Royal Ordnance Factory No. 11 personnel was collected for the 60th anniversary of VE Day in 2005. The wartime experiences of these ROF workers changed their lives forever.

These are their stories.
