A former Liverpool biscuit factory famous for creating family-favourite confectionary was a "home away from home" for many of its workers.
Originally a small shop opened in Scotland in 1813 by William Crawford, Crawford's Biscuits later became a well-known name on Merseyside. Well-known for its delicious shortbread by the 1890s Crawford and Sons, the biscuit manufacturers, built a large factory in Fairfield and welcomed generations of employees.
Located in Binns Road, Crawford's was known for making favourites such as 54321 chocolate bars, Bandits and Penguin bars, the Liverpool ECHO previously reported. It wasn't unusual for employees to also pop to the social club for a themed night or join the Crawford's football team.
