Keay, a leading manufacturer of iron roofing and shedding in the late 19th century. The image features a beautifully designed prefabricated corrugated iron church and storehouse, which was a popular choice for missionaries during this era. The elegantly crafted church, with its pointed arches and intricate details, demonstrates the artistry and skill of the E.C & J. Keay team. The iron structure's robustness and durability are evident, making it an ideal solution for remote or challenging locations. The accompanying storehouse, with its clean lines and practical design, further highlights the versatility of iron roofing and shedding.

The use of iron for construction was a game-changer, as it offered a cost-effective, lightweight, and quick-to-assemble alternative to traditional building materials. This advertisement, dated 1888, is a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of E.C & J. Keay. Their commitment to quality and design made them a trusted name in the industry, and their impact can still be seen in the numerous iron structures that continue to stand the test of time.
