Re: Turkey Red Dye Works Accrington
Turkey red dye and the process involved was not solely a Baxenden product, nor wasit the first.
Steiner and Gatty were involved in it, Steiner holding a patent and producing it at his Church Turkey Red Dyeworks. They were in partnership on Hag Lane ( now Hyndburn Rd) also. This was in the early to mid 1800s. Gatty patented a khaki dye process.
