Wreaths laid under the Lincoln Tank memorial installed in May 2015 in memory of the World War One tank produced in Lincoln. The first WW1 tank was built in the City of Lincoln by William Foster and Co. Theirs is just one name from a long list of great engineering firms that used to dominate the City of Lincoln and provide employment for many of its residents. Ruston Hornsby who produced diesel engines, Ruston Bucyrus who produced steam excavators and James Dawson and Co, who still exist in the City, manufacturing belting and hose – these companies along with many others produced goods that were exported all over the world.
