Female munitions workersstaff at an arms factory prepare for work in the factory changing area, 1940. Female staff at an Arms Factory somewhere in Britain, prepare for work in the factory changing area. A low barrier in the floor differentiates between the 'outside world' and that of the factory. Outdoor coats, hats and shoes are left on one side of the area and the women put on special shoes, overalls and mop caps on the other side of the barrier. Here we see several women in the process of stepping over the barrier, whilst another fastens her shoes.
