LONG ING SHED
CH. 12/09/1930. Report of the fact that the New Road Manufacturing company are to move their business (400 looms) from Brook Shed at Earby into the premises at Long Ing Shed previously occupied by Brown and Bailey. They will use Brown and Bailey’s old looms but bring their own tapes and preparation machinery from Earby. There was speculation that the move had been triggered by favourable terms at Long Ing but Mr Fred Pickles would only say that the new arrangement was ‘more convenient’. (In truth, they were probably getting 6 months rent free which was quite common). The Council warned against optimism, no more looms were being run and no new labour would be needed.

BANKFIELD SHED
CH. 26/12/1930. There seemed to be hope for employees of the Barnoldswick Manufacturing Company Ltd who liquidated recently. The looms and preparation machinery bought a week ago by the Barnoldswick Room and Power Company have been bought by a former director of the Barnoldswick Manufacturing Company, Mr A H Taylor of Manchester who hopes to re-open the firm in Bankfield Shed in January. MR F Dearden, the manager of the shed said it was a good thing and 265 jobs had been saved. The name under which the concern would run had not been decided.
