Newspaper Cutting : Rolls Royce Outing

A cutting from Hucknall Dispatch, dated 12 July 1974.

Caption : Pictured here are retired employees of Hucknall Rolls Royce and their wives, ready to leave for an outing to Skegness last Tuesday. There were 135 on the trip, and they enjoyed a pleasant day with goad weather. Lunch was provided at the Imperial Hotel, North Parade, and when they arrived home, they were taken to the Rolls Royce club room, where refreshments were provided by the ladies section.
