BACK in the 1960s and 1970s, the factory or works dinner was a major social event and this one, in Bishop's Castle in the 1960s was clearly no exception.

Perhaps someone from among our readers can tell us what the factory was and who is involved?

The picture was taken by the late Colin Love, whose work chronicled Bishop's Castle and district during the era in question.

We're grateful to Colin's family and to Roy Hatfield for allowing us to share these pictures with you.
