IT was all smiles from this works event at Richmond’s in Latchford.
We were sent this picture of works dance or Christmas party at the famous old Richmonds Rec venue in the 1960s.
Do you recognise any of the guests?
It is clear the former factory and social club has very happy memories for many of you.
George Crompton, who now lives near Knutsford, got in touch to tell us about his work as an apprentice sheet metal worker.
He started in 1943, his grandfather being a floor moulder.
While his brothers Charlie, Ron and Harry worked there, his sister was in the drilling shop and his mother worked in the shell shop.
He added: “I also went back after National Service working with a chap named Norris who was a prop forward with St Helens.”
