Huntley & Palmer’s biscuit factory in Reading, the town of my birth, photographed from the air in the 1920s.

It was the biggest biscuit factory in the world, covering 24 acres and producing over 400 varieties of biscuits, with its own internal railway connected to the GWR.

All gone by the 1980s apart from the former Factory Social Club building.

That’s when biscuits were big and meant something and not just used as a throw away line in and online forum meme.

Huntley & Palmer’s are also renowned for their artistic biscuit tins, like this beauty from 1910.
