Over the next few days I will post some odds and sods that were sent to us by Werneth Low.
These are just the sort of things we are looking for.
Ashton Brothers in its full glory.
Ashton Brothers R.I.P.
Many Thanks to Werneth Low for sharing.
Much appreciated. :)

Wonderful pictures. They must have employed a great many people. Sad that so many of our industries have died or gone abroad.

So, so sad. Will have to look elsewhere for my Wimbledon towel this year!
I think Christy's (owned by Wellspun) still do the Wimbledon towels - evrything is made in India now though and the sales office which was at Carrfield Mill is now in Cheadle Hulme.
Do they have a factory shop at Cheadle Hulme, Gerald?
I don't know if they have a shop there but the address is Christy (Welspun UK) Ltd
Park Square
Bird Hall Lane
Cheadle
Cheshire
SK3 OXF. - you can buy online via http://www.christy-towels.com
Thanks Gerald, that's much appreciated.
