Re: Map of LICS premises in 1897
Fascinating! The branch in Calverley is listed. Calverley was an Urban District Council until 1923 when it was amalgamated into the Borough of Pudsey, so I wasn't sure that LICS would have been etablished in the vilage before then. What's even more surprising is that the map seems to show a branch in Idle, which at that stage was a village, and probably outside the Bradford City boundaries. But I would have thought http://secretleeds.com/posting.php?mode ... 3#Bradford Co-op to be the Society of choice there. BTW, my family's LICS Co-op number was 2194. But don't ask me what I was doing yesterday
