Muschamp Laundry
Many of the local women worked here.
By Beverley Walker
The Sunlight Laundry in Muschamp Road employed many of the local women from the Estate. One of their main clients was St. Helier Hospital. Mrs Clare Moore who worked there in the 1960's worked on the calender which was a large machine that folded sheets. Her daughter Clare Peters later worked in the dry cleaning department.
According to a Wellcome Library report from 1961 the laundry had it's own well.
