The first external 24/7 launderette in the country has opened this week - in Pendle!

The machine as been installed at Pendle Village Mill, Brierfield - and the company responsible have described the location by the M65 as ideal.

Steve Robinson, commercial executive for Surrey-based Photo-Me, said: “It is right by the motorway, the mill has a large footfall of customers and we are confident it will be popular and successful.”

Although this is the first launderette Photo-Me has opened in England, it has had similar facilities in France and Belgium for a number of years.
