Source Imperial War Museum, U.K. There is a memorial to munitions workers of the National Filling Factory No. 6, Chilwell and is a Grade II listed building on the north side of Chetwynd Road inside Chetwynd Barracks, in Chilwell, near Nottingham. It commemorates the workers who died in accidents at National Shell Filling Factory, Chilwell during the First World War, particularly the large explosion on 1 July 1918. The large free-standing pyramidal monument, enclosed by chains carried on shell casings, was unveiled in 1919 and became a Grade II listed building in 1987. National Filling Factory No 6 was established in Chilwell, Nottinghamshire, as a filling factory, where empty shell casings that were manufactured elsewhere could be filled with explosives. It opened in February 1916, to fill high explosive shells of 4.7 in (120 mm) or larger calibres, with amatol, usually made on site by mixing one part TNT to four parts ammonium nitrate. The factory was under the oversight and management of Godfrey Chetwynd, 8th Viscount Chetwynd, who introduced special features to improve efficiency and safety: by 1916 it was filling 130, 000 shells with 900 tons of amatol each week. In its first two years of operations, there were several small isolated explosions at the factory that killed one or two people each. A massive explosion occurred on 1 July 1918 when 8 tons of explosives were detonated killling 134 - accounting for > 1/2 of the 218 National Filling Station fatalities during WW1 . Source Wikipedia.
