Sidney Nutter in the office at Bancroft. Part of the Nutter family but as he used to say, not the Nutter Millions. Together with his cousin Eughtred Nutter he ran the office at Bancroft until his sudden death.

Eughtred and Sidney Nutter making the wages up in the office at Bancroft. Eughtred came in on two days a week to help his cousin Sidney on the busy days, making up the wages and distributing them. Remember the weavers were on a piece rate based on picks.
I don't suppose anyone counts the money out and puts it in envelopes these days. (I used to take mine home and give it to Vera unopened.....)
