There was a lot of interest from readers earlier this year when I asked for recollections about Flinn’s Dye Works in Fishersgate.

Now Maurice French of New Church Road and Hove has sent in this picture of a Christmas party for employees. He is not certain of the year.

His parents, Amy and Albert, from St Nicholas Road in Portslade, are third and fourth from the right in the front row. Sitting next to them on their left are a Mr and Mrs Colborn from nearby Abinger Road.

I would welcome any more information about this party and the firm. So would Mr French, and also Nick Fleischmann from Edgedale Road, Sheffield who is compiling a history of Flinn’s because of family connections. He can be reached by calling 01142 584246.
