Also if anyone knew anything about a mill/ factory that used to be in Atlas Street (top end of Clayton) which burned down, again in the early 1930's I believe. No name for this one unfortunately (might have been a weaving mill).

Thanks for any help
Are you sure its not Dowry St. There was engineering firm at the bottom of Dowry St.
