Belgrave Mill, Darwen, 1969
The main offices of Crown Wallcoverings at Belgrave Mill in Darwen pictured in 1969.
You can just make out on the sign the name Potters which refers to the family responsible for bringing wallpaper manufacturing to the town in 1840.
A distant relative of the family was world famous children’s author Beatrix Potter.
