	Penny Magazine - 220
		SOHO, although essentially appertaining to the great manufacturing town of Birmingham, is situated about two miles from the centre of the town, upon the road to Wolverhampton, and although but a few yards beyond the parish of Birmingham, is in a different county--that of Stafford.
		When Watt went to Birmingham, part of the establishment at Soho was appropriated to his use, and with the advantages he there enjoyed he soon produced some capital engines.
		It was ultimately found necessary to erect, at a convenient distance, an iron-foundry, to which comes a branch of the Birmingham canal, whereby coals, iron, sand, &c., were brought to a wet dock within the walls, and the engines and other heavy goods transported in boats to every part of the kingdom.

		Over 90% of the Matthew Boulton letters to Thomas Wilson are not replicated in the Birmingham archives and many other letters which were written by the Soho partners when away from Birmingham are also unavailable in Birmingham archives.
		Cornwall was also one of the chief foci of the attempts to subvert the Patent (based on separate condensers, air-pumps, closed-top cylinders and better use of the steam in the system), the defence of which was a major preoccupation for Soho.

		The center for their manufacture would appear to have been London, but Birmingham, which was even then a focus of the metalworking trades, was also represented, and one can safely assume that other towns made their contributions to the industry.
		Their large, handsome halfpennies were struck in 1791 and 1792 (and extensively counterfeited within a short time); the die-sinker was an early member of the Wyon family which was to design the majority of British coins in the nineteenth century.
		Not all of these tokens were as elaborate as the Birmingham and Worcester pieces: the Yorkshire town of Bradford provided for the monetary needs of the inmates of its workhouse by simply overstriking other people's penny tokens with the words "Bradford Workhouse." The Crown recognized the usefulness of this branch of nineteenth-century token issues.
