These timber parts, found just outside the North East corner of the F1 factory, are reminiscent of the wooden roof formers used to create the shuttering for the vaulted concrete roof of F1. However they differ in a number of respects and are assumed to be parts used in the final construction, repair, or modification activity perhaps after the RAF raid of 17/18 Aug 1943. Metal shoes and wear plates (shown in photo) indicate that the formers were intended for repeated use.
