Again I think this was in the early 90's. Taken by my brother Ian.
My Dad in the ' engine ' room of the Trencherfield Mill. He started working life at Eckersley Mill down the road. At the age of 25 having been no further than Manchester he & my Mother sailed for India, where he spent the years till 1952 managing a cotton mill in Cawnpore ( Kanpur ) He never ever lost his Lancashire accent.
Wonder if the gentleman in the white overalls recognises himself ?
