This is a photographic negative produced by photographer Ian Beesley. This was part of a project called 'Thackray Remembered' (Thackray 2011) which was commissioned by the Thackray Medical Museum to document the closure of a Thackray factory which manufactured hip and knee replacements. It was taken over by the American company DePuy who moved production to China.

This image shows seven men in DePuy uniforms sat around tables, possibly in the middle of a meeting. Two of the tables in shot are clear, the third one has pairs of glasses and cups resting on it. Though the top is cut off by the frame, the clock reads 11:33 ish.
