While wandering through the vast, gloomy, cobweb-ridden spaces ((c) H P Lovecraft) that pass for an attic in this place, looking for a measuring cylinder small enough to do R09 developer, I came across a dusty leather case - the original case for my Sanderson folding field camera which I haven't looked in for donkey's years. To my great surprise, apart from the hole where the camera should be, I discovered I also had not only a handful of dark slides for it, but also a set of adaptors to use them with film.
Right - where can I get quarter-plate film (or possibly sixth-plate - I'm going to have to measure them to be sure)?

Having measured it - 4.25 by 3.25 on the ground glass. That makes it quarter plate.

Either Ilford through their ULF order, but expensive, or Ag Photographic sells Adox, there's also Wephoto which is Filmtec (formerly Orwo) material.
