(c’1902-1914) ?
Old Woking based Unwin Brothers like many other works had their own band. Founded in 1902 the Gresham Press Band, which was also known as Gresham Brass Band or Gresham Press Brass Band, are known to have played at events in Send, with many of the players living in houses built in the village by the company.
Membership numbers varied but seems to have always been around 18. In 1906, the band competed and won a competition in Aldershot for their marching and playing, going on to be the southern area champions. Sadly, like many work’s bands, they disbanded during First World War and never reformed.
