ENGINEERING HERITAGE AWARD

The Royal Arsenal
1671 to 1967

The Royal Arsenal produced much of the armaments required by this country during the growth of the British Empire and through two World Wars.
Many important mechanical innovations were developed by the first Chief Mechanical Engineer, Sir John Anderson (1814-1886), Vice President of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers.
