1924: Huge fire at the Candle Factory on corner of High Street and Kingston Road (opposite Police Station), which took 3 hours and 400 gallons of water to put out. Melted wax blocked the drains and firefighters and policemen had to wade up to their knees in molten wax. Although the factory itself was remarkably little damaged, candle manufacturing was never resumed at the site.
