Keyword: Brookhouse Group
Brookhouse Aerospace Ltd and Brookhouse SPD Tool Company Ltd, members of the Brookhouse Group, of Darwen, have moved from the three separate locations they formerly occupied in Tameside and are now all located in a new factory and office complex at Hyde (Plate 12).
Until recently, Broookhouse's Tameside companies had been situated at Dukinfield, Mossley and Stalybridge but this latest Brookhouse investment brings all their design, manufacturing and administration facilities together in one 6.67-acre location.

new Brookhouse factory and office complex at Hyde
The new complex comprises over 42,000ft2 of production area, which houses the two companies' wide range of machine tools, hydraulic brake and rubber presses and welding facilities, while being large enough to cater for spray booths and surface treatment plant. There is also sufficient space to allow the assembly of very large aerospace structures.
