In 1842 Nathaniel Clayton and Joseph Shuttleworth formed Clayton Shuttleworth Ltd. They produced agricultural equipment specialising in threshing machines.

In 1963 Smith Clayton Forge Ltd were taken over by Guest Keen and Nettleford (GKN) along with several other major independent companies and became part of the GKN Forgings and Castings Group. Later the GKN Forgings Group was amalgamated with the British Steel Special Steels Division to form an organisation known as United Engineering and Forging.

By 1997 the British Steel Forgings group had been taken over by an organisation lead by the Prudential Venture Managers. The company was renamed UEF Aerospace and UEF Automotive, Lincoln. UEF standing for United Engineering Forgings.
