Judging by the image on their billhead, J & J Parish had a sizeable yard and workshop. No doubt there was plenty of work for them in 1920s Withington, Manchester. The business was started as a partnership between Jethro and Joseph Parish but Jethro became sole proprietor in 1890.

Eleanor Thistlethwaite, Confectioner, charged 5s 0d for a pigeon pie in 1853, which was certainly not cheap. The shop was at 11 Chestergate in Macclesfield and is now Jones' Jewellers.

Thos Alman, General & Furnishing Ironmonger, 24 Mill Lane, Sutton. 1 coal box repaired for the grand sum of 1s 3d. The premises which stood over, and at the south side of, the archway that led to the Victoria Mills were demolished when the Silk Road was built through to Mill Lane. This particular billhead has special significance to me because we lived in the flat over the shop in the mid 1970s. At that time it was the 'Home Improvement Centre' selling double glazing.

Bengal Tram supplied from Royal Depot Mills at Park Green, Macclesfield in 1836. Tram is a weft yarn of two or more twisted strands of silk. The purchaser, Thomas Bullock & Son were silk manufacturers in the town. 1½% discount for cash in one month. It was actually settled in just over two months.

The mill was demolished to make way for the architectural wonder that is the NatWest Bank and County Court in a building called Silk House.
