Wood Westworth & Co. Ltd.

Vincent Wood bought Birchley Hall in 1945. At the time he owned and managed the St Helens Reporter, Wood Westworth & Co Ltd, a printers in St Helens that had been in the family since about 1860, and a stationery shop with a small library in St Helens town centre. The Birchley Hall Press was resurrected by Bernard Wood, and formally named as such, in 1951 in the same building as the original press, with the publication of This is the Faith. The actual printing, however, was done by Wood Westworth & Co. A few further titles were published up to at least 1960, including A Flame for Africa (1953) and Liverpool's Hidden Story (1957). Birchley Hall is now a care home for the elderly run by Sue Ryder Care.
