    Hi…I am a former employee of Arjo Wiggins,,having had the pleasure of working there for well over 20 years,,I have collated and donated a large collection of photographs and mill production records to the Glamorgan Records Office..under the reference number..D/DX 987

    There is also a Facebook group page set up for Mill employees and their families..Wiggins Teape Association,where there is a vast collection of mill related photographs and memorabilia available for your perusal.
