It employed generations for over 100 years
For over a century, the Tate & Lyle factory dominated the skyline north of Liverpool city centre and employed generations.
Chrissie told the ECHO: "I went to work away in Bournemouth and then I came back and somebody said you’ll get a start in Tate & Lyle's or Bird’s Eye on Kirkby. I said I'd go to Tate & Lyle and got the interview and then I started. Chrissie's sister-in-law also worked at the factory and many former workers made friends for life. Today, Chrissie is still close with friends Ann and Monica whom she met at Tate & Lyle while working there in the 70s.
The Crystal Club, on site of the factory, was the place most workers went for a drink after a shift, but Chrissie also remembers visiting the many pubs in and around Vauxhall Road. But Tate & Lyle closed on April 22, 1981, after over a century in the city. Now, their latest book, The Sugar Girls of Love Lane, tells the remarkable stories of those who worked at the famous Tate & Lyle factory in Liverpool. Featuring stories of former employees, Duncan and Nuala travelled to Liverpool and organised reunions to hear first-hand what life was like at the Vauxhall factory by those who used to work there.
