William Griffin and Sons (Woodhouse Brothers)
Lifting Gear
Archive Drawings from 1918 to 1965
William Griffin & Sons Ltd was established in 1790 and specialised in the manufacture and supply of high-quality chains under the ‘Triton’ and ‘Beacon’ brand names. In 1942 William Griffin & Sons collaborated with another local company of Premier Works, Cradley Heath called Woodhouse Brothers to produce components in support of the war effort during World War II. This subsequently led to a merger and the registration under the company name Griffin Woodhouse Chain Cables in 1944 which later changed to Griffin Woodhouse Limited in 1965.
