Like woodwork, poetry is a craft.
We've found a John Betjeman poem, Westgate-On-Sea, that mentions woodwork. Betjeman, who looks happy in the photo below, was an English poet, the UK's Poet Laureate from 1972 until his death in 1984 - the year after Gerrymet began as a tooling and saw blades supplier.
On this balcony I stand,
White the woodwork wriggles round me,
Clocktowers rise on either hand.
