EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the past with this image of the Crumpsall CWS Biscuit Factory's lavatories, as captured in a vintage lantern slide from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection, available at Mary Evans Prints Online. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the daily life of Manchester's Crumpsall CWS Biscuit Factory in 1908. The Cooperative Wholesale Society (CWS), a leading figure in the cooperative movement in England, established the Crumpsall factory in 1892. The factory was a significant part of the industrial landscape of Manchester, producing a wide range of biscuits and cakes that were distributed through the cooperative network. This photograph showcases the factory's lavatories, which were undoubtedly an essential facility for the factory's employees. The Edwardian-era design is evident in the ornate tiles, high ceilings, and large windows, which allowed natural light to filter in. The use of separate facilities for men and women reflects the social norms of the time. The image transports us back to a bygone era, offering a fascinating insight into the working conditions and daily routines of the factory workers. The Victorian and Edwardian eras were a period of significant industrial growth in England, and this photograph provides a snapshot of the bustling factories that were at the heart of the industrial revolution. The Crumpsall CWS Biscuit Factory closed in the 1980s, but its legacy lives on through photographs like this one, which offer a glimpse into Manchester's rich industrial history. This photograph is not only a visual treat for history enthusiasts but also a reminder of the importance of preserving our industrial heritage for future generations.
