Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Maker's nameplate on Goliath. See 1552310. Goliath was made by Alfred Herbert Limited, who were machine tool makers in Coventry. The Alfred Herbert Company was once the world's largest machine tool manufacturer, with a name comparable with Rolls-Royce. The firm closed following an auction of the entire stock in October 1983, when the workforce numbered 400, approximately the same as when Alfred Herbert declared it a private limited company in 1894.
