Testing and production records were found in the stable block of Queensbury Lodge and transferred in 1994. They had damage from damp and insects, and required clearning and some repair. Many records were destroyed when LIPMs Chelsea site was bombed during the war. The papers of Sir Charles J Martin, Director of LIPM (1903-1930), were transferred to the Australian Academy of Sciences, Canberra.
