They shine a light on the lives of some of those living with long term mental illness in the 19th century and are a valuable source of information on the people using the hospital, their conditions and treatment. A typical house generally consisted of one room down stairs and two up stairs with a nail-shop attached. Although working and living conditions were atrocious for a lot of nailers some of the better off nailers in Bromsgroves who lived behind the eastern side of High Street were able to supplement their income with market gardening. These nailers who lived in this area had gardensthat were large enough to cultivate and produce vegetables in the winter and a variety of fruit in the summer. Rural nailers also could get work on farms, so much so that half of the work force in this area only made nails in the winter months. However not all houses in Bromsgrove had largeenough or even had gardens at all to allow for market gardening. A report from 1840 "the cottages in and near Bromsgrove and Redditch have no gardens, or very small ones". Inthesamereport concerning Bromsgrove and Redditchit alsodetailed the earning breakdown of anailmakers family. The heads of the families would earn 8 shillings to 11 shillings per week as agricultural labourers and 10 shillings to 24shillings as needle makers per week. Children at the age often would earn around 2s per week.For children this would increase per year by 6 pence for girls and 9 pence for boys. punches head on bolts or rivets; does minor repairs to machine and instructs header q.v. setter, mould (steel) is in charge of operations of setting and stripping casting pits, i.e. placing moulds on pits ready for casting and removing them afterwards; may also assist pitside craneman ( 950) q.v. to sling ingots and moulds; usually done by pitman q.v. setter, mould (typefounding) bloom shearer, cutter-down, slab cutter, slab shear driver, slab shear operator slings and clamps steel blooms or ingots in shearing machine, which divides them into suitable lengths for rolling; applies length gauge to ensure that correct lengths are being sheared. cutter, ingotblank maker, forger (screws) passes metal strip by hand into semi-automatic machine which cuts screws to required length and forms their heads;-watches machine for any faulty work. header-up, heading machine man see header (holts, rivets) ; sometimes specifically designated, e.g., holt heading machine man, rivet heading machine man. helver (tools) fixes helve or handle into heads of hammers, axes, choppers, hoes, etc., by cutting handles to fit eye of tool and driving in metal or hard wood wedge. hilt embosser, sword hilt embosser raises design on sword hilt with hammer and punch; cf. embosser ( 254). hilt piercer (sword) pierces designs on sword guard with small fret saw. hinge maker assembles parts of hinges by fitting and pinning, clinching and burring over joint pins; may be done by hand with assistance of machine tools, or entirely on automatic machines. hook maker, blake; boot hook maker see needle maker, boot. hook maker, bonnaz; embroidery hook maker a needle maker q.v. making, by hand, embroidery needles which are hooked and have screwed shanks. hot air man (blast furnace), hot blast man controls valve to regulate passage of hot air to tuyeres of blast furnace; sometimes done by stove minder ( 171) q.v. hot saw man, hot saw worker, hot sawyer mangleman, mangier, rounder guides with an iron bar, tubes, as they emerge from welding process, between rollers of cross rolls, where they are straightened and rounded while still hot; adjusts rollers by means of screws. crystalliser (lead extraction) iron plate straightener straightens or flattens stone cutting saws bent in use, by hammering on an anvil or iron plate. straightener, soft (needles) a hammer straightener q.v. who straightens needles in the soft, i.e., before hardening, on anvil, with hand hammer. straightener, spindle spindle stretcher (i) a straightener q.v. employed in a mill where spindles are produced; operations similar to those of rod mill straightener q.v.; (ii) for small spindles used in textile machinery, may tap with hand hammer on a steel plate to reduce irregularities. straightener (tubes) plate setter (wire works) sets and fits in machine, dies or plates, through which wire is drawn; cf. die setter ( 211); may also draw wire, see wire drawer ( 268). setter, faller setter fits, secures in position with screws and adjusts mechanism of fallers on mule spinning machines. setter, frame setter (metallic bedsteads) fixes rails, bars, etc., of bedstead into suitable position with necessary moulds at joints, in readiness for pouring metal; is responsible for distance and alignment. setter, heading machine (bolts, rivets) fits and secures dies in heading machine, i.e. machine which punches head on bolts or rivets; does minor repairs to machine and instructs header q.v. punches head on bolts or rivets

A William Tylsley, whose son died in 1602 is the first known nailer in Bromsgrove. During the same century the nail trade in this regionstarted to flourishmainly due to two main reasons; beingnear to the River Sevenwith its links to the sea and trade andsecondly North Worcestshirewas close to the raw materials needed to make nails; coal and iron. Another river, the River Stour alsobecame important inthe nail making tradein the region with more slittingmills for its length than any other river in Britain. A slitting mill was a watermill for slitting bars of iron into rods. The rods then were passed to nailers who made the rods into nails, by giving them a point and head. Another important changewas the improvementsto blast furnaces and the change from charcoal to coal which made the trade competitive. Richard Reynolds in a letter around 1760, "The nail trade would have been lost to this country had it not been found practical to make nails of iron made with pit-coal". All these developments in the 18th century helped to transform the tradeinto a major industry in the 19th century. wrench finisher finishes off drop forgings of spanners and wrenches or parts thereof by emery wheel grinding, lathe polishing and hand filing; fits together parts by riveting or with screws. finisher, spring hook files, fits and polishes, on bobbing wheel, drop forgings of spring hooks for use in harness gear. finisher, type see dresser, type. finisher, wrench see finisher, spanner. firer and dogger (puddling furnace) a firer (puddling) ( 279) q.v. who also acts as dogger ( 279) q.v. fitter; general term for workers assembling and fitting together metal articles from component parts or erecting simple metal apparatus in its place; usually works at bench, with vice, screwdriver, file, hammer and other hand tools; in some cases may use small riveting machine to fasten parts together; or may weld or braze joints; is usually a specialist in fitting together one kind of article and rarely has to alter or adjust parts to any extent; cf. fitter ( 210); often specifically designated, e.g. anchor fitter, hag frame fitter, casement fitter, chandelier fitter, cot fitter, grip fitter, iron cabinet fitter, mattress fitter, metal casement fitter, musical hell fitter, saddle' fitter, speedometer fitter, tank fitter. fitter, bath erects baths in bathrooms, etc.; fixes base to floor, fits taps, etc.; connects up with water supply and waste pipe; usually done by plumber ( 252) q.v. fitter, bedstead
