I remember something about them going bust and getting bought out. I do remember that they're factory/bottling plant/offices? used to be opposite where the midland bank was (that became HSBC) near the university on the inner ring road (right by the tram stop), but it's definitely no longer there.
swittle Aug 2023 10:32pm, 2 Aug 2023 99,069 posts	0 swittle I realise that any reader of this part of the thread could have Googled - as I did - what came up was a very detailed and personal account of the story of Henderson's through good times and bad, from 1885 to the present day. I daresay many other family business have experienced similar chages in fortune. hendersonsrelish.com
rf_fozzy Aug 2023 11:02pm, 2 Aug 2023 20,701 posts	0 rf_fozzy Ah, thanks swittle. Maybe I'm (mis) remembering the fact that the factory had to move. The picture of the factory shown on there in the 90s is what I remember it looking like!
