The new building was to be of two storeys, facing Medlock Street, 200 feet long by 100 feet wide for 450 operatives. Due to lack of opportunity to expand their existing works, Goody’s had decided to move from Salford to a new purpose-built factory in the Hulme clearance area. They hoped that the existing staff in Pendleton would be prepared to travel the extra distance.
