Wow, things are moving fast on here.
The Cranbrook Banqueting Suite is where Alfred Hugh Harman started his photographic company, later known as Ilford.
It was originally named Britannia Works but in 1900's he wanted to change the name to Ilford Ltd & the council objected. When they finally gave in, he had to use a comma before Ltd so it became Ilford, Ltd for 50 years.
They must have only had a 50 year agreement as in was dropped in the 50s.
