The Gretna Bombing – 7Th April 1941
Acknowledgements This booklet has been made possible by generous funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund, The Armed Forces Community Covenant and Dumfries and Galloway Council, who have all kindly given The Devil’s Porridge Museum the opportunity to share the fascinating story of heroic Border people. Special thanks are given to all those local people who participated in interviews which helped to gather invaluable personal insights and key local knowledge. A special mention is deserved for the trustees and volunteers of the Devil’s Porridge Museum, who had the vision and drive to pursue the Solway Military Coast Project to a successful conclusion. Many thanks also to the staff from local libraries and archives for their assistance and giving access to fascinating sources of information. Written and Researched by Sarah Harper Edited by Richard Brodie ©Eastriggs and Gretna Heritage Group (SCIO) 2018 1 th The Gretna Bombing – 7 April 1941 The township of Gretna was built during the First World War to house many of the workers who produced cordite at the ‘greatest munitions factory on Earth’ which straddled the Scottish-English border. You might be forgiven if you had thought that Gretna and its twin township of Eastriggs would be constructed on a functional basis with little attention to detail. This was the case in the early days when a huge timber town was built on a grid system for the labourers and tradesmen, but, so intent was the Government on retaining the vital workforce, that it brought in the best town planners and architects to provide pleasant accommodation. -
