Bank End and Shirt's Row

 

The 1871 census lists Bank End Cottages as "Shirt's Row". This appears to be named after James Shirt one of the residents who is listed as "Stone Dealer and Master Mason employing 25 hands" . He was the owner of Bank End Quarry and his was perhaps the largest house at the far end of the row..
Also living at Shirts Row were 4 labourers at the stone quarry and also Alfred Taylor, a Master Wheelwright employing 2 men.  Alfred Bennett was an apprentice Joiner and Wheelwright at the same address.
Philip Henry Webb was a Manufacturer of Cotton Yarns.

On 21st January 1871, the Glossopdale Chronicle told how James Shirt had entertained his employees at theri annual dinner.


Bank End Farm is first recorded in 1611. 

In the 1871 Census it was occupied by Thomas Ollerenshaw aged 32, and his family, and by Edward Ollerenshaw, aged 29, and his family. They were perhaps brothers or cousins. Morris's Trade Directory of 1874 lists them as also being grocers and provision dealers.
William Ollerenshaw, was also living at Bank End Farm,he was retired, aged 58.


Also giving their address as Bank End was Edward Ollerenshaw a retired farmer aged 74, his wife, and son, aged 46
Joseph Longden whose grocery business was at 55 Buxton Road lived at Bank End with his wife as did Samuel Cooper, a Bricklayer

  1. I just applied for both an individual loan and an entitled Loan from Mr Pedro Jerome and his loan organization at the 3% rate I will be starting my loan repayment next month and it will really be helpful to anyone here looking for a loan to contact Mr Pedro Jerome on pedroloanss@gmail.com for individual or entitle loans with a simple loan repayment as mine.
