The factory in the title of this photograph was not associated with the Co-Operative movement, (Co-op). It was built in 1872 by the founder of the company, Timothy Coop.
Here's a link to a potted history of the company on a "Wigan Archives Service" page:

Eddie is correct that this has nothing to do with the Co-operative movement. The caption for this image and that for EPW005027 need to be changed to match that for EPW005026 which correctly ascribes the building to Coop and Company Limited. |
