    My late husband worked at spray and burgass in the 70 s....the company had a few name changes,colwick dyers,basford dyers,Can't remember any other names but I think there was at least one more.The factory has long gone,but I think they left an old house standing as it was listed.I have a few photos of the inside of the dye house that my husband took when he knew the place was going to shut down.

    It must be a very old place as I remember my granny saying she once worked there,at a guess I'd say that must have been the 1930s-40s .

    Hi crankypig are you able to share the photos that your husband took? I think my grandad used to work at colwick dyers and I'm trying to retrace his footsteps with my mum, who will remember the place well. 

    Thank you, laura
