Bennett's Shirt Works
A Memory of Warrington.
This photo is dated 1965. By this time the factory was owned by the Burton Group, making men's suiting and jackets. Burton's bought it in 1961. I started working there in September that year till it closed in 1977. One of the men I worked with had been working for Bennett's for years and said that during the war one part of the factory had been used for doping aircraft wings. The factory was built in 1935.
