Yes, remember the smell as a girl up New Lane, ... little like disinfectant ? Haven't noticed it over the last years though. Best of luck to all those losing their jobs, bet some of them have been there for years.

Know what it has been like for the people who worked for my company with the closure of their mills, over 300 people gone. Whole families. Hilden was the last weaving mill in Oswaldtwistle to go and seems at one time it was supported by 18. Cheap labour abroad I'm afraid.
