Talk:James Morgan (engineer)

( some links on the subject of James Morgan in an email )

... whilst inevitably I studied Nash a little bit in the Welsh School of Arcitecture / Ysgol Pensaeriaeth Cymru I was unaware of James Morgan, which seems a tremendous shame ... native 18c engineering entrepreneurs are in short supply in Wales
