LOCAL business helps form the fabric of the past, and a recent image from the archives has sparked some memories.
Sharing a photo inside the Granby Garments factory in Wrexham to the Leader's 'Local Bygones' Facebook group, members took to the comments with some recollections.
And we share a few more here, featuring a few faces working in the factory, and enjoying staff events.
Granby Garments turned out quality lingerie and nightgowns for High Street giant M&S for many years, with a very healthy order book.
It was part of the Courtaulds Organisation, with factories on the Wrexham Industrial Estate and in Rhos.
