This photo turned up a few years ago, with the following notes written on the reverse...



"Perhaps Uncle Reg when he was with the London Electric Supply Corporation 1904-1910.
This may be in the Deptford Power Station of which he became Chief Engineer in 1906."

Don't understand Ruston's comment - I can't see if he is wearing safety shoes or not Confused
