Dear Sir,
I would like to commend Finleys for naming their new leisure complex ROF 59 in memory of the Aycliffe Angels.
Julie Finley rightly says that without the Ordnance Factory there would be no Aycliffe Business Park, to which I would add that without the ROF, then the Industrial Estate, the decision in 1947 to build the new town of Newton Aycliffe, would not have been made either.
