Old Plumbing Workshop at Chch Technical College

c. 1947

"Interior of the old plumbing workshop at ChCh Technical College. Tutor George LeBrun facing on the right in a dust coat. It is thought the men shown in the class may be WW2 rehabilitation apprentices. Man in the foreground is working on a lead flashing; 2 men at left foreground are working on shaping a lead pipe using a wooden bobbin pulled back and forth through the pipe. This workshop was later demolished in the 1960's when a new workshop was built." - Contributor's note
