Description:This small dairy processing works was set up around 1911 to supply the Cadbury's factory at Knighton.
The Knighton factory was established by Cadbury’s in 1911 to make chocolate crumb for the Bournville factory, at a time when Cadbury's Dairy Milk chocolate was becoming enormously popular. A ready supply of Staffordshire milk and good links to Bournville via the Shropshire Union Canal made Knighton the ideal site.
