This seven aisled building with north light roof was built by the Crewe Publishing and Printing company 1877 and was then bought by Coop & Co., Ltd after 1887 who began to manufacture clothes in the premises. In 1898 it was remodelled for the firm of W. H. L. Cameron of Manchester extensively and christened the "Marmion Works". Cameron sold the works to the Co-operative Wholesale Society in 1917 and production recommenced in 1918 and juvenile clothing became a speciality. Two extensions were added in 1931 and 1937-8.
