Notes:

Provides a history of Lyons 'with the purpose of filling at least some gaps in our knowledge about the history of catering as a form of food distribution'. Deals with the nature of the retail and commercial catering industry from late 19th century; the nature of its catering business; the stimulus of this for the establishment of a food processing business, notably tea processing and baking
