A brief history of Vauxhall in Luton

Available for over a year

Vauxhall Motors parent company Stellantis has announced plans to close its van-making factory in Luton - ending almost 120 years of the company in the town. The news puts over 1,000 jobs at risk. Paul Hammond from the Luton's Heritage Forum takes a look at the impact the manufacturer has had on the town and the people who live there. (Photo credit: FPG/Getty)
