Kirkpatrick Brothers Limited (KBLd) operated from 1873 to 1931 as bleachers, dyers and finishers.
They specialised in producing organdie - an almost transparent cotton that was made by passing the cloth through a bath of concentrated sulphuric acid.
The business was later sold to the Lancashire Combined Bleachers' Association, then to Whitecroft and finally to Flaxall in 1976.
By this stage the processing of cloth had stopped and the factory was concentrating on the ‘Linron’ process for bleaching and blending flax fibre with other yarns.

On the cross, just before he died, Jesus said "It is finished" (John 19:30). Not "I am finished", but "It is finished". The work or salvation was finished and complete. The purpose of His coming - to die in the place of sinners; to take the punishment for our sins that we deserved - it was finished, once and for all.
If we trust in His finished work on our behalf, we can receive the gift of salvation.
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
(Romans 6:23)
