The Company was founded by Charles Dando Purnell in 1839 as a small family printers with small print shops in Radstock, Midsomer Norton and Paulton.

In 1839, in the heart of the old coal mining community, Charles Dando Purnell established what was to become Europe's biggest printing firm.

A strict Methodist, his main aim was to alleviate the poverty and unemployment caused by the reduction in mining and closure of Flook's boot factory in Paulton.

The company passed from father to son until in 1924 Charles' youngest son Clifford brought in Wilfred Harvey, an accountant, to help out. The company rapidly expanded and more members of Mr Harvey's family were recruited.

At this time Purnell printed bills, books and postcards

It became a major publisher of bibles and at its peak employed 2,000 people before it merged with Hazell Sun to form the British Printing Corporation in 1964.

The print works in Paulton closed in December 2005 with the loss of 400 jobs.
