Title: Biscuit Factory F.C, 1920 [Go to resource]
Description: This is one of the many sports teams that played for the Biscuit Factory and were able to use the company's playing fields at Kings Meadow and Kensington Road. One member of the team was Frederick Taylor. He was apparently approached to turn professional and play for Bolton Wanderers but his wife did not want to move from Reading, so he stayed a highly regarded amateur playing for his county and Huntley & Palmers. He was a cake decorator at the factory and assisted with many cakes for royal occasions, including Queen Elizabeth's wedding cake.
