Norman Parker. Inset: Plaque design 11 PLAQUES are to be installed across the city and its surrounding areas in honor of the secret Spitfire workers. The plaques, designed by Norman Parker, the late Ethem Cetintas and Chris Whalley and manufactured by Leander Architectural, will take pride of place on the exteriors of buildings confirmed to have been requisitioned for Spitfire production during WWII. Building on the spectacle of the Secret Spitfires Memorial, they will provide further recognition of the efforts of hundreds of young women, boys, elderly men and engineers who constructed approximately 2,500 Spitfires in total secrecy in Salisbury between 1940-1945 after the bombing of the Southampton Supermarine Factory.
