Surrey / John Cooper Steam Boot Factory
« on: Wednesday 20 October 21 16:34 BST (UK) »
I have just come across John Cooper's Steam Boot Factory which was built in South End, Croydon, approx 1870s, which produced boots for agricultural labourers - aside from the Factory houses were built for his workers in Bynes Road, along with several shops (with the area apparently given the nickname Snob's Island - snob being a term for a cobbler.) I was wondering if anyone knows how or where to find out more information about the Factory?
