in 1291 the chapel of st . denis within the former castle of midhurst was mentioned , and also the ' chantries of midhurst in the chapel of st . thomas ' . ( fn . 71 ) the latter was probably the chapel of the hospitallers , as of the four services which the priest was to celebrate in 1515 two were the feast of st . thomas ( 29 december ) and his translation ( 7 july ) , and the ornaments of the chapel included an alabaster tablet of st . thomas of canterbury .

sir david owen in his will , made in 1530 , desired a chantry of two priests to be founded in the church , the priests to be appointed by the dean of chichester , the prioress of easebourne , and the ' vicar ' of midhurst ; ( fn . 65 ) but there is no evidence that this was done .
in 1862 he established the bishops waltham clay company for the manufacture of bricks and terracotta . he was also heavily involved with the bishops waltham railway company , set up to link his brickworks ( and the town ) with the main london - southampton line . with the opening of the railway , bishops waltham was once again developing into a prosperous market town , being home to several agricultural suppliers , merchants and a cattle market and abbey mill which was built in station road in 1862 . helps also financed the town ' s water works as well as the coke and gas works which lit the town and the station from 1864 . he also provided the land for the royal albert infirmary which opened in 1865 .
although midhurst gave its name to a rural deanery , the church remained a chapel of easebourne ( q . v . ) , whose chaplain was appointed by the prioress . at the dissolution it passed into the gift of the owners of the cowdray estate as a perpetual curacy . in 1557 sir anthony browne , as owner of a number of rectories and advowsons , proposed to endow or augment vicarages in all of them , including midhurst , with the tithes of the rectories , reserving the advowsons . ( fn . 63 ) he also proposed to found two chantries , one at battle and the other at the altar of st . john the evangelist in the parish church of midhurst . the royal licence was duly given on 12 june , but if any steps were taken to carry out the proposals they came to nothing on the death of queen mary a little more than a year later . nearly 200 years later , in 1747 , everard levitt left £100 for the purchase of lands to augment the living , so that the incumbent should have prayers on wednesday and friday . ( fn . 64 )
since most sensible folk would keep quiet about this , we assume john was not blessed with brains either , since his punishment was to walk through the streets of chichester , midhurst and lewes , wearing only a shirt , shoes and a strip of linen around his waist , whilst carrying a faggot . ( a bundle of sticks ) , before carrying on to chichester cathedral .
owing to the influence of the lords montague at cowdray midhurst was a centre of roman catholicism . thus in 1621 there were about forty households of recusants here . ( fn . 35 ) in 1634 john arismandy appointed john cope and richard shelley to administer certain moneys after his death to provide a priest for the poor catholics of midhurst , to say masses every week for his soul and ' my lords auncestors ' . this deed was found in the 19th century in a box hidden in the chimney of an old house with rosaries and other religious objects . ( fn . 36 ) in 1642 the ' protestation ' in support of the church of england was signed by 207 men in midhurst , but 54 ' recusant papists ' refused at first to sign it . two days later 35 of these did sign , ( fn . 37 ) probably excepting , either expressly or mentally , the special clause denouncing the roman faith , as did their colleagues at easebourne , ( fn . 38 ) where there was an equal number of recusants . the present roman catholic church , built in sandstone in the early english style , was erected in 1869 within the liberty of st . john . ( fn . 39 )
the charity of henry court , founded by deed dated 8 may 1869 , is regulated by a scheme of the charity commissioners dated 5 september 1893 as varied by schemes of the said commissioners dated 2 august 1898 and 4 july 1924 . by the scheme of 1893 the governors for the time being of the midhurst grammar school were appointed to be trustees of the charity and it provided that the income shall be applied in apprenticing poor boys , natives of midhurst , who have always resided there , and who have completed their 13th but not their 15th year , as indoor apprentices . by the scheme of 1898 , if proper applicants for indoor apprenticeships are not forthcoming the trustees may apply such income in apprenticing duly qualified poor boys as outdoor apprentices . the annual income of the charity amounts to £27 10 s . 2 d .
the midhurst bell is still rung , according to a report in 1860 , because a lost traveller , in olden times , was saved when he heard the bell and found the town . he was so grateful he gave a quarter of an acre of land in knockhundred row to the town in order to keep the bell tolling . the income of which pays for the ringer to ring the bell , the repair of the bell and the maintenance of the tower , belfry and curfew .
the norman st . ann ' s castle was built on a bluff overlooking a ford over the river rother and a major crossroad , on the site of an earlier saxon settlement . the castle dates from about 1120 , although the foundations are all that can now be seen . the castle , the parish church of st . mary magdalene and st . denis , together with south pond , the former fish - pond for the castle , are the only three structures left from this early period . the parish church is the oldest building in midhurst .
as early as 1384 dower was assigned to cecily widow of sir john de bohun in ' the manor of midhurst called coderay ' . ( fn . 51 ) from the time when sir david owen began the building of the great house the manor , as distinct from the borough , of midhurst was often called cowdray . in 1528 sir david sold the bohun estates to sir william fitzwilliam , reserving the right to live at cowdray , but permitting sir william to build there , provided he was not inconvenienced by the work . ( fn . 52 ) his son sir henry owen pointed out that sir david had only a life interest , but himself conveyed the reversion to sir william . ( fn . 53 ) the latter , created earl of southampton in 1537 , died in 1542 and left the estates to his half - brother sir anthony browne . he died in 1548 and was succeeded by his eldest son , sir anthony , who was created viscount montague in 1554 and lived until 1592 . his eldest son having died shortly before him , midhurst and cowdray passed to his grandson anthony maria and from him in unbroken succession to george samuel , 8th viscount montague , who was drowned in 1793 when rashly attempting to shoot the rapids of the rhine . as he left no issue the estates passed to his sister elizabeth mary , who married william stephen poyntz . he died in 1840 , leaving three daughters , by whom the property was sold to the 6th earl of egmont . from the 8th earl it was bought in 1908 by sir weetman pearson , created baron cowdray in 1910 and viscount in 1917 , and is now held by the 3rd viscount .
george ognell ' s poor charity was established in 1596 by the said george ognell , of crullfield ( warws . ) , who enfeoffed 12 trustees in tenements , amounting to some 160 acres , in the neighbourhood of midhurst for the benefit of the poor of that town . it is regulated by a scheme of the charity commissioners dated 20 february 1880 , which appoints a body of trustees to administer the charity and apply the income under various heads for the benefit of deserving and necessitous persons resident in the parish . the annual income amounts to £138 10 s . 0 d .
michael bageley , ( fn . 66 ) who represented the borough in parliament in 1399 , in 1422 founded a brotherhood which supported a morrow - mass priest in midhurst church . ( fn . 67 ) it held lands yielding £14 10 s . 6 d . in 1523 , ( fn . 68 ) bequests being made to the brotherhood of the holy rood before and after that date . ( fn . 69 ) two wardens collected the money and accounted for it to the town bailiff ; when the seizure of lands given for ' superstitious ' purposes was imminent , the ' maisters of the town ' caused the lands to be conveyed to them by a new deed and so managed to retain them . ( fn . 70 )
midhurst was a ' free borough ' and in 1278 was said to have been so from time beyond memory . ( fn . 9 ) it was governed by a bailiff , ( fn . 10 ) who was elected by the burgesses from among themselves and presented to the lord ' s steward at the annual court baron of the manor of midhurst . ( fn . 11 ) with him were associated a number of burgesses , but the constitution , and even the numbers , of this council cannot be traced . dallaway ' s statement that ( in 1815 ) ' they have a common seal ' ( fn . 12 ) is at least doubtful , the only item of municipal insignia remaining in the hands of the town trust being a silvergilt mace , presented in 1736 by sir henry peachey . disputes over the rights of the burgesses were settled in 1409 by an agreement under which sir john de bohun ( and his feoffees ) conveyed to michael bageley and six other named burgesses and their successors the right to take the market tolls and to hold both the three - weekly courts and the two ' law days ' by their steward in the name of sir john and his heirs , by payment of 40 s . yearly . if they failed for a whole year to hold the courts the agreement should lapse , and if they neglected to keep the streets and ditches in order the lord ' s manorial officers should take measures against offenders but should hand over any fines to the burgesses . ( fn . 13 ) this arrangement was confirmed in 1537 by sir william fitzwilliam . ( fn . 14 )
in the 12th century enjuger and savaric de bohun granted a rent of 1 mark from a mill at midhurst to the abbey of waverley ; ( fn . 27 ) and this was transferred by the monks to anthony de beck , bishop of durham , in 1289 . ( fn . 28 ) when sir john de bohun died in 1284 he owned the north mill ( near the bridge over the rother ) , worth 40 s . , and the south mill ( of which the pond lies below the castle hill ) , worth 6 s . 8 d . ( fn . 29 ) in 1311 the value of the two mills had risen to £8 . ( fn . 30 ) a contract was made in 1467 by sir humphrey bohun with nicholas wykford for rebuilding the north mill as a corn and malt mill . ( fn . 31 ) the tithes of both mills had evidently been granted to the knights hospitallers , as they were included in the lease of the chapel in 1515 to robert gybrisshe made by sir thomas docwra , prior of the order . ( fn . 32 )
the bailiff held the assize of bread and ale , appointing two ale - tasters yearly , and acted as clerk of the market . ( fn . 15 ) a market existed from an early date , for in 1223 when the bishop of london complained that savaric de bohun had taken tolls in the market of midhurst from his men of lodsworth who were exempt from such tolls under a charter of king john , savaric replied that his ancestors had been seised of the tolls before the date of the charter . ( fn . 16 ) there was a weekly market on tuesday in 1288 , ( fn . 17 ) but under a grant made to viscount montague in 1681 the market was to be held on alternate tuesdays . ( fn . 18 ) by 1792 the weekly market day was thursday , ( fn . 19 ) and there was still a market for corn on that day in 1878 , ( fn . 20 ) but by 1888 it was apparently no longer functioning . ( fn . 21 ) the grant of 1681 included fairs on lady day ( 25 march ) , st . margaret ' s ( 20 july ) , and st . luke ' s ( 18 october ) . the first and third continued ( allowing for the change in the calendar in 1752 ) until 1888 , but the july fair is replaced in 1792 by whit tuesday and in 1888 by 19 may .
there are two versions of the story . one , the sub prioress of easbourne priory was a bit put out when henry vlll chucked her and her fellow nuns out in , the dissolution of the monasteries and cursed whoever took the land next . step forward sir william fitzwilliam , earl of southampton , who was building cowdray at the time .
two , sir antony browne , owner of cowdray between 1542 to 48 , was cursed by a rather aggrieved monk , after he pulled down battle abbey church , which he happened to own as well .
but which ever may or may not be true , on tuesday 24th september 1793 , cowdray house , which was by then owned by george samuel browne , the eighth viscount , caught fire , after a careless chippy left a piece of smouldering charcoal on some wood shavings . aided by the strong winds the whole place burned down .
owner george thought he’d had a lucky escape as he was busy trying to shoot some dangerous falls in a tiny boat at laufenburg , germany with his mate charles sedley burdett . you can guess where this is heading ? neither was ever seen again . presumably drowned .
it has long been the custom to paint the woodwork on properties owned by large estates the same colour , to show they are owned by the estate .
when the second viscount cowdray , weetman harold miller pearson , inherited cowdray in 1927 he thought it would be a nice idea to have all the woodwork of estate cottages bright yellow .
however , the gaillardia or blanket flower is a plant from the sunflower family named after m . gaillard de charentonneau , an 18th - century french magistrate .
we aren’t sure why the writers of the film carlton browne of the f . o . gave the name to the former british colony long forgotten by the foreign office . but they did and when valuable mineral ores are found on the island , the russians become interested and the inept cadogen de vere carlton - browne is sent to ensure british rule continues , unsuccessfully as it happens , sparking a revolution .
to aid the filming an old 1870’s engine , “terrier” tank no . 32640 was sent from brighton engine shed and starred as the train which was divided by a painted white line when the island was partitioned into two .
for those of you who have more than a passing interest in brickwork . . . . the bricks were made by mixing calcium lime with fine siliceous aggregate ( whatever that might be ) and water . the mixture is then moulded at high pressure and finally cured with steam .
after the war he decided to stay on and started a local weaving and coverlet making business .
what made him decide to start a charity school for twelve poor boys we can’t say , but we bet they had nicely woven uniforms , cosy beds and weren’t short of a carpet or two .
however , they weren’t the first sussex residents to risk the wrath of god for the game .
church records show that in 1611 two parishioners in sidlesham failed to attend church on easter sunday because they were busy playing cricket . they were fined 12d each and made to do penance , presumably by being forced to watch continuous re - runs of england’s world cup defeat by south africa… .
the word comes from the french couvre feu and it means to cover a fire .
william the conqueror is generally given credit for imposing the curfew bells , rung from local churches to tell people to rake their ashes and put the fires out , so the town didn’t burn down overnight . however , it may well have not been him , but it was he who imposed heavy penalties on those who took no notice .
kings edward l and lll both made laws saying no - one could carry arms on the streets after the bell was tolled and now the word curfew is associated with naughty people who have to wear electronic tags and go to bed early , until they learn to be good .
except for the war , the bell has rung every sunday , funded by the massive annual income of £4 10s… . .
ernest howard shepard started as a contributor to punch in 1907 and worked his way up to first cartoonist . it was while he was at punch that he was recommended to aa milne as an illustrator for some children’s verses . milne wasn’t convincved and at first , charmingly , described shepard’s style as “perfectly hopeless” but soon came round .
shepard based pooh bear , not on milne’s son’s bear but on his own son graham’s bear , a fellow called growler , who came to a rather slobbery end in a dog’s mouth some years later .
the pair ( milne and shepard , not the bear and the dog ) never became close , shepard later saying “i never knew him intimately . it was difficult to get beyond the façade
but milne did arrange for shepard to receive a share in the royalites , thus making him pretty well off , which was nice .
however , karma eventually caught up with mr milne for his less than kind comments . when the house at pooh corner was published , one reviewer for the new yorker , in her column the
constant reader
, wrote that

poor old john was not only blessed with a very unfortunate surname , but he also wasn’t sure he believed in the virgin mary , that the body of christ was present in the eucharist or that only a confession to a priest could save his soul .

gauge rail system on three levels - lower , where the final products are marshalled ; middle , where sand is excavated ; and upper , where the disused pit is reclaimed .
when the lswr track was lifted the firm decided to extend the middle level and , by means of a cutting and an embankment , crossed over the lswr trackbed to open up a new pit . this new line is about 300 yards long and was constructed from materials from the abandoned lime in the old pit . it is virtually level except for the last few yards to the working face where it drops sharply . a rail
built buffer stop has been erected here . the rail is flat - bottomed , about 50 lbs . per yard , and spiked direct to ex−b . r . sleepers ; it gives a fairly smooth ride .
this centre line is worked by a 4−wheel simplex diesel locomotive ( works number 8981 ) and two skips , bringing back about four tons of sand each journey . the sand is tipped at the western end of the works and , after washing , is nixed with cement and moulded in the pressing sheds . the bricks pass to the lowest level of the works where they are fired .
the waste from the manufacture is passed via a conveyor belt to the upper line where it is fed into a half - dozen skips . two of the latter have inside frames and the rest outside . the 4−wheel simplex petrol locomotive ( no . 6035 ) which works here is housed in a small corrugated iron shed at one end of the line . it propels two skips at a time along about 200 yards of temporary track around the lip of the disused pit where the spoil is tipped .
returning to the lowest level , there is quite a complex arrangement of prefabricated track which serves the two storage sheds . there are a large number of well - sprung flat wagons , which are more broad than they are long . newly made bricks are taken on these from the kilns , via a traverser , to the sheds for storage or loading on to lorries . a now disused branch runs between the two storage sheds , through the bushes , across the road and down to the also disused lswr goods shed . here , in the good old days , the bricks were transferred for rail shipment .
two locomotives work on the lowest level . the largest , and more commonly used , is an unusual 4−wheel hudson petrol whose outside frames reach almost to the ground . it tows wagons around by means of a chain which keeps the wagons at a distance as though silage , not bricks , was their load . the other locomotive on this level is another 4−wheel simplex petrol , no . 6023 .
all four locomotives are painted grey ; the simplexes have wooden cabs but the hudson has a canopy only . heavy repairs are done during the firm‘s annual holidays in august . the locomotives work reliably and , despite their drab livery , add greatly to the coniferous forest which alone makes a visit to the works well worth while .
“with the knowledge of the south downs national park authority we want to sit down and come up with a master plan , ” he said .
“the two sites could be combined to provide more housing , recreational use and an expanded recycling depot . ”
the county council wants to sell the highways depot , used for the storage of salt , to raise part of the funds needed for a ‘super hub depot’ the focal point of a restructure of the highways service .
the proposals designed to transform the way the service operates , have been labelled ‘radical and far - reaching’ by the county council .
the super hub , said a report to the environmental and community services select committee due to be held yesterday ( january 14 ) : “will be the single biggest change in our transformational plan , but will allow us to realise huge benefits to staff , contractors , sub - contractors , other service areas and partners and , ultimately , our customers . ”
although the location of the depot has not been revealed , it is set to be ‘at a location with convenient main road access links to all parts of the county’ .
as the council is intending for highway workers to be based in the areas in which they work , the super hub would be for office - based staff and storage of materials .
a ‘significant’ reduction in current staff budgets’ is also set to take place in the highways department .
the county council has revealed a £1 . 3m cut to its highways staff budget for the 2015 / 16 financial year .
in 2013 additional temporary funding was made available to help address a ‘backlog of customer enquiries’ built up during the harsh winter of 2012 / 13 .
this has meant enquiry volumes are back to normal and next year’s budget will not include £814 , 000 for the temporary staff . the council also opened a customer services hub at bognor regis in october .
officers said as well as axing the temporary posts they had to offset the cost of the new facility . they were “designing a staff structure that will allow us to function within these constraints . ”
the original castle of st ann ' s was abandoned by 1317 , and replaced by a castle across the rother in the parish of easeborne . this in turn was rebuilt as cowdray house in the early 16 th century . in the late eighteenth century cowdray park was landscaped by capability brown . cowdray house was destroyed by fire in 1793 leaving the ruins we see today which have been immortalised in the paintings of jmw turner . cowdray ruins was the subject of a major conservation project and opened to the public in spring 2007 .
the parish church of st mary magdalene and st denys was once the only permanent building within the market square ; now the square is the heart of the town and lined with residential and commercial properties .
the old town hall , an early 19 th century building on the south side of the square , is now an attractive coffee shop . in an alcove beneath the steps on the outside of the building you can still see the town stocks and pillory , last used in 1859 .
the old market hall , a 16 th century timber and brick building which stands in the middle of south street , housed the original grammar school , founded in 1672 . the school later moved to the building which now forms part of the south downs national park authority ' s headquarters on north street , where hg wells was among its best known former scholars .

a history of the county of sussex : volume 4 , the rape of chichester . originally published by victoria county history , london , 1953 .
as in most other live towns , the oldest buildings survive chiefly off the main thoroughfare . in north street , which is the high street of the town , nearly all the buildings have been rebuilt or altered from the 18th century onwards . a peculiarity is that the main road ( a 286 ) from london to chichester enters the town as a side - turning at the bridge over the river rother and after passing through north street is suddenly diverted by a sharp bend eastwards through the narrow knock hundred row to pass southwards through lion street and the market square , the roadway on either side of the isolated old market hall and buildings north of it being narrow and dangerous . the apparent continuation southwards of the main road through north street , rumbold ' s hill , ( fn . 6 ) and the mint merely comes to a dead end at bepton ; and the continuation of north street northwards ( a 272 ) passes through easebourne village to turn eastwards through cowdray park for petworth . west street starts from the market square , crosses the north - south roadway at the junction of rumbold ' s hill and the mint to continue westwards as the main road ( a 272 ) to petersfield .
lion street has ancient buildings on its west side but , except for the bottleneck north end of it , was widened in the 18th century , either by the frontage being set back to that of the parish church or by the demolition of most of a 17th - century island . two buildings of this island still survive by the market square at the south end of lion street and facing west street . the old market hall stands south of these . there are some old buildings in west street , and in wool lane which runs northward from west street to a fork with rumbold ' s hill . all the ancient buildings were of timber - framing , of which the old market hall , the spread eagle hotel ( west of it ) , and several others are good , if not very ornate , examples .
the old market hall stands isolated , south of west street and west of the market square . it is now used as an estate agent ' s offices and the upper story is a private residence ; this upper story was the first home of the grammar school founded by gilbert hannam in 1672 . ( fn . 7 ) it dates presumably from 1552 , when sir anthony browne granted to the burgesses a vacant space , 70 by 30 ft . , in the market on which to build a market house , ( fn . 8 ) but it has been much renovated and altered ; the lower story , which presumably was open - sided originally , is closed with modern timber - framing , windows , & c . the upper story is jettied on the north front and east and west ends on moulded bressummers supported by shaped brackets . the front is of two bays with square framing . in each bay is a three - sided bay - window on shaped brackets and with pedimental heads . the two main gable - heads also project on stop - moulded bressummers and brackets and are of square framing . the east and west ends are similarly treated except for the windows , which were flat and are now blocked . the south elevation is in one plane and the west half is of timber - framing with a tile - hung gable - head ; the east half is of brick and has a chimney - stack . that the building extended one bay farther southwards originally is borne out by the positions of the two long diagonal ceiling beams in the lower story .
the spread eagle hotel includes an l - shaped building of timber - framing at the corner of west street and south street , dating probably from the 15th century , and a mid - late 17th - century building south of it , facing eastwards towards south street . the timber building was apparently the inn originally but was abandoned when the 17th - century part was built and became shops . the east front of it has a jettied upper story on shaped brackets and the north half has a projecting gable - head . the framing is mostly plain rectangular panels , with fairly close - set studding in the south half . the windows have been renovated and fitted with lattice glazing . the north side has heavy curved braces below the wall - plate . the west half is still a separate shop and a tiled pentise or hood to the whole length is a reminder that the east half has also been a shop . it has two projecting windows on coving or brackets and a doorway between them . it is now part of the two lounges that occupy all the east range . these have open - timbered ceilings with heavy chamfered beams and wide flat joists . the northern chamber has a 7½ft . west fire - place of stone in which is an iron fireback with the stuart royal arms . the south end of the range has some abnormally heavy timbers with straight braces . in the upper story are queen - post roof trusses and straight wind - braces to the purlins . in some of the upper windows is a good deal of collected 17th - century flemish heraldic and other glass ( 1612 to c . 1640 ) .
the southern part of the hotel is of red brick with stone angle - dressings and plain architraves to the windows . it is of two stories , attics , and cellars . the southernmost room is lined with late - 17th - century oak panelling , also the room above , and there is some reset early - 17th - century panelling . behind is an 18th - century wing of whitened brickwork . part of it—the dining - room—has a wide fire - place and old ceiling beams .
the swan inn and an adjoining building are the remains of a 17th - century island north of the market hall and west of the market square . the inn has plastered walls and the upper story of most of the east front is jettied , but the south block is modern .
the shop and house next north appears to date from earlier in the 17th - century than the inn . the walls are plastered : the east and west ends have jettied upper stories and projecting gable - heads . there was another building north of it and its present north wall was the party wall . it is of ancient timber - framing with curved struts , and two fire - places are exposed ; the upper has moulded brick jambs and a four - centred head .
the building west of this block at the corner of lion street is modern but the next north of it in the narrow part of the street next the island may be of 15th or early - 16th - century date , judging from the moulded bressummer to the jettied upper story : it is a small building with a frontage of about 16 ft . and has timberframing to both stories .
the next north ( two shops ) is a plastered building with a jettied upper story on curved brackets of the 17th century ; it has modern windows . a longer building adjoining , now a house and two shops , was probably one tenement of early - 17th - century date and was evidently an inn ( ' the lion ' ? ) . the southernmost part projects a little ; it has a jettied upper story and a gablehead , the barge - boards of which are carved with a pierced foliage pattern . it is all plastered , as is also the northern extension , which is also jettied above the two modern shop - fronts . in front of the gable is the iron bracket for the former inn - sign .


research enterprises limited ( rel for short ) was a short-lived toronto-based crown corporation that built electronics and optical instruments during world war ii .

they existed only six years from late 1940 until 1946 , and active only from late 1941 , but during that period they became leaside 's largest employer , producing c$ 220 million worth of radar systems and optical instruments ( $ 2,968 million in 2017 ) .

after the war , the government rapidly closed the various wartime companies it had started .

after rel was closed , their factories formed the basis of a corning glass plant , philips electronics , and a variety of other firms .

today only a few of the original buildings still stand , used primarily for light industrial and small commercial enterprises .

research road in leaside is named for a short - lived but amazingly productive high technology war industry company named research enterprises limited ( rel ) . occupying 55 acres southeast of eglinton and laird , rel at its peak it employed over 7 , 500 people in buildings covering 750 , 000 sq . ft of engineering and manufacturing plants . it produced an incredible $ 220 , million worth of high technology radio machinery and precision optical instruments in its six short years . little remains , just a few red brick buildings on eglinton and on research road . incorporated on july 16 , 1940 , and closed in september , 1946 , research enterprises was the largest single employer ever to operate in leasid . war conditions gave canadians a chance to show they were among the world’s best in establishing a high technology facility and at maintaining very high production volumes throughout the war . noteworthy was the equal staffing of men and women , with the latter providing most of the inspection staff .
to support volume production , the canadian government created a crown corporation in toronto , called research enterprises limited ( rel ) . rel stayed in business until september 1946 . during the war , more than 8300 radar sets were produced at r . e . l . for the canadian , u . s . and british forces . most of these sets were either production versions of nrc designs , or adaptations of british designs to north american components and practices .
besides a great deal of practical operational experience , the tizard mission brought at least two key pieces of technology to canada : the cavity magnetron and the basic plans for a gun - laying , antiaircraft radar system . the nrc took the gun laying plans and developed the gl iiic . the gl iiic was one of the first mass - produced radar systems built by research enterprises limited . though the canadian built version did not see action in britain , it was installed in australia , south africa , russia and canada . the gl iiic is probably not so important for its contribution to the war effort , but more so for solidifying the equipment production role of research enterprises limited and pushing the envelope of electronic parts design and production in canada . many of the british vacuum tube designs required in the gl iiic , and the cavity magnetron itself , had to be redesigned and manufactured using canadian resources and production lines .
the water research foundation is seeking pre - proposals for funding consideration under its 2018 subscriber priority ( sp ) research program , which is reserved for subscribers . the sp research program is designed to encourage collaboration with foundation subscribers on research . subscriber priority projects typically address applied research topics that may be local or regional in nature . the research topic should be broadly applicable to wastewater , stormwater , drinking water and / or seawater . proposals should complement the foundation’s ongoing research and not duplicate any current or pending project . sp proposals are accepted once per year under a two - step process . an initial pre - proposal of no more than four pages in length is first submitted for review and screening . in the second phase , full proposals are requested for those pre - proposals judged to have the greatest potential outcome .

understanding the small manufacturer’s point of view on manufacturing issues requires an understanding of the markets for their products . commodity product manufacturers sell to the end user , as well as to wholesale entities or distributors . in addition , they sell to larger manufacturing enterprises that then incorporate the product or service into their own products or services . some of these larger companies may have business relationships with the department of defense ( dod ) . job shop manufacturers tend to be dependent for business on component suppliers to larger enterprises . this type of sme may also do some value - added work for large enterprises . job shop manufacturers do not in general have direct sales to dod but may do work for dod through prime contractors . high - technology manufacturers may be dependent on supplying components or systems to larger enterprises . for example , a high - technology manufacturer may improve semiconductor processing through the development of new equipment or parts . if necessary , such an sme may sell directly to retail or wholesale outlets . high technology manufacturers may work either directly with dod or through a prime contractor .

small manufacturing enterprises are important to the u . s . economy for a number of reasons . since the early 1980s , manufacturing employment has become increasingly concentrated in smaller plants and decreasingly concentrated in larger companies . in 1994 , 65 . 8 percent of total u . s . manufacturing sector employment came from companies with fewer than 500 employees .
to support the mass production of the radar sets , the canadian government created a crown corporation on the outskirts of toronto called research enterprises limited ( r . e . l ) , which stayed in business until september 1946 . the idea for r . e . l was first conceived by general a . mcnaughton , to supply military optics , which he found to be in short supply during the first world war . but soon after the development of radar sets began at the nrc , a strategic mass - producer of the equipment would be needed and the wartime role of r . e . l . was established . during the war , more than 8300 radar sets were produced at r . e . l . for the canadian , u . s . and british forces . most of these sets were either production versions of nrc designs , or adaptations of british designs to north american components and practices .
