rather a tenuous link to mining history, but ... When reference was made to
the formation of Shropshire Mines Limited in 1917 the London Gazette
referred to it as Shropshire Mines (1916) Limited, the National Archives
BT31 file 23508/145661 refers to the company just as Shropshire Mines
Limited, what is the standing of the (1916)? I am sure that I have come
across concerns where an absence of dates or the presence of dates in
brackets have distinguished successor companies, presumably in these cases
the date would be part of the company's legal name. In the lack of an
idiot's guide to company law can anyone help please.
