Cash's is a familiar name to many people, because they manufactured the woven name tapes that identified the owners of millions of items of clothing worn by school pupils. (I remember with horror the herculean task of sewing the wretched things on hundreds of school uniform items - and also on my mother's clothes when she was about to move into a care home.) These houses were built by the Cash company for their workers. They have living accommodation on the lower floors and workshops on the top floor to make the maximum use of the available daylight. They are now desirable residences.
