Here is a picture of three Hyde Cotton workers... the one in the middle is my mum... I think I was told this was taken at Slack Mills.. I know she also worked at Hyde Mill and of course Ashton Brothers... She might not have won a 'Cotton Queen' contest like Hyde's Frances Lockett, but she will always be my very own Cotton Queenie...
Eh what a bonnie lass:) Linda
