Mr Burrows


Queen Street Characters
One name which is inseparable from Queen Street is that of Clifford Burrows, who, as company secretary, ran the mill from 1957 until it closed.
From 1900 to 1957 the mill had been run by his uncle Mr Willie Burrows.
The company's first boss, a Roggerham stone mason Thomas Pickles, was Clifford's maternal grandfather.
