In 1965 I was planning to go to the RNCM violin so I started my first job at Morefield mill in the winding room I loved Shaw, still do. My mother worked in most of those Shaw mills including the Moorfield. Happy days, I finished up working with my father on British Railways 1969 - 2011 worked at Shaw many times. Happy days indeed.

My Grandad worked at the Lilac Mill in Shaw, 51 years he worked there. I'm in Chadderton and older generations of the family are from Greenacres and Fitton Hill.

I used to work in Shaw 1980-1982. At a company called Easyfit . They made stretch covers for furniture and car seats. It was near a place they used to call the Wigwam. Do you know it at all?

Brilliant old photos and good choice of music. Will show my parents, they will love reminiscing. They lived across from the photo of the derelict cottages in Cowlishaw until recently. Thanks for sharing.

I had a relative who was a Shaw Gawby😄Always liked Shaw back in the 70's because I found it a lot quieter than Oldham and a closer community, There were some good walks nearby too over Crompton Moor. It's heyday though, it was a powerhouse for textile manufacture.
