1901 workers leaving a Stockport hat factory

[stratcat]

I hope this works for people around the world.
Stockport is my home town, although I haven't lived there in over 20 years.
Lots of hats to see as you'd expect from a film of that era. Gents in their bowlers, lots of caps, the ladies in their straw boaters and what must be the gaffer in his topper!

the video doesn't run here in Canada, evidently we're not an authorized location for viewing content

I tried viewing it using a proxy and had a problem getting it to load. I'll try again tomorrow if I remember.

It's only available to the United Kingdom but with HOLA plugin, I can see the movie.
