Remembering Finlay's tea factory

Here are a couple of great old phots from The Herald archive of Finlay's Tea Factory.

The factory shut in the early 1970s - but there must be a good number of people out there who remember it.

Perhaps you worked there, or your parents did. Share your memories here on s1catrine.com

The factory is cotton spinning not tea. Perhaps confusion has arisen because James Finlay & Co who owned the mill also had interests in tea plantations in India

Memories, Nostalgia & History

History doesn't have to be in black & white

Your memory of a local character or a school photo from the last ten years can be just as interesting as wars and Victorians.
