Maybe if they had ploughed a bit more back into the factory might have been still around today.

Ged away wi thi, John Bullough had been long dead before Bulloughs went under, the demise was their own fault, they had exported machinery and set up factories all over the world, the end result being cotton was cheaper to produce abroad, also once those machines were there, they bought very few spares, they craftily copied and produced their own. Things were looking bleak in the early 1950's, and by the late 1950's they were laying people off.
