The carpark is in Barkly Street, behind the O'Shanassy Shopping strip. In the 1940s-1950s, a former textile factory occupied the site. The factory was housed in an ex-army hut and many of Sunbury's women were employed there. From 1946 - 48, the business was known as Angee Clothing, which produced gloves, slippers and dressing gowns. In 1949, the site was taken over by Yakka, where work clothes were made. As the business expanded it moved to Broadmeadows in a large modern factory.While the factory was in Sunbury, it provided employment for a lot of the local women.A coloured photograph of an off-street carpark behind a shopping complex.
