Abstract

We use a point-pattern methodology to explore the detailed location patterns of UKmanufacturing industries. In particular, we consider the location of entrants and exitersvs. continuing establishments, domestic- vs. foreign-owned, large vs. small, and affiliatedvs. independent. We also examine co-localisation between vertically linked industries.Our analysis provides a set of new stylised facts and confirmation for others.
