The town of Chichester was a "company town". The Chichester Chair Factory - and, through the years its various owners was THE employer. They built up the town and the houses that housed the employees. Workers were paid in scrip - to be spent at the Company Store. When the town went bankrupt the entire town was auctioned off. You can read more about this in "The Mountains Look Down" by Reginald Bennett.
