Title
Evercreme Toffee Works, Brearley - ALC06362
Description
Burnley Road at the top of Brearley Lane was the site of the Evercreme Toffee Works. On every 'Toyplane' toffee was printed a letter from the word 'Toyplane'. When you had collected all the letters you could send in the wrappers in exchange for a football.
The picture can be dated as pre 1936 by the presence of the tramlines.
Before the second World War, the building was being used by a film making paper bags. During the war it was used for storage and under too much weight, parts of the structure deteriorated. The remaining section was used after the war by Williamson's who made caravans.
