About this book
Port Sunlight is a book by T. Raffles Davison. A caption names the Employees’ Provident Stores and Collegium, with Douglas and Fordham as architects. The text says the visitor who now for the first time goes to Port Sunlight and realises the extent and quality of the work done is naturally much impressed by the variety and interest which the whole village affords.
The text notes the adoption of open spaces, communal gardens, and allotments in preference to the spaces devoted to individual gardens surrounding each cottage in so many other places. The text says the absence of the many dividing lines of fences between each cottage frontage produces a breadth of effect along the lines of roadways which is in itself very pleasing. The text says it would be difficult to do justice to Greendale Road with its continuous line of 97 cottages, which form a picture of great variety and interest as viewed from the passing trains. The text says it will be of interest to quote from a paper by the founder, Sir W. H. Lever, on prosperity-sharing, in November, 1900.
