This is all that remains of Duffins poultry store, my Father's business until his death in the early 70s. The white building at the left is a recently constructed Elim Church and has no connection with the factory. The partially demolished building on the right was the cold store which had the refrigeration unit in a small lean-to at this end. The main building was used for storage and packaging of poultry for export to England and to retail outlets throughout N.Ireland. The flat roofed building at the far end was the "killing and plucking area" and also where the live chickens etc. were stored until time of execution.
