North Walsham Steam Laundry Co. Ltd.

(1918 to 1922 / North Walsham, Norfolk)

This postcard of the North Walsham Steam Laundry, with its Straker Squire van parked beside it, was taken about 1920. Established in 1900, the company advertised in 1904 as laundry men, dyers and french cleaners. It survived a fire in 1906 to become one of the foremost laundries in East Anglia. A by-pass runs along the railway where the photographer stood and the quiet fields to the right have become a busy industrial estate. The Straker Squire van beside the building had its bodywork built by Frank Mann, Vicarage Street.
