Was this a Morganite or Palmers 'do' in the 1950's ???

I borrowed this photo about 20 years ago from Mrs Nesbitt ('U' on the photo) . I remembered her as a very tall lady living in the next street to where I lived 1953 to 1969. Her husband is 'H' on the photo.
Hopefully someone will recognise a relative and know where the photon was taken. Mr Nesbitt worked at Palmers & she at the Morganite.

I started in Palmers DO in January 1958 and I do not see any faces that I know.

That could be that I was too young and do not remember any company dances but I would not have been at one anyway until about 1962-1965.

Were these staff ladies with their husbands and staff husbands with their wives.

The only way to determine which company photo it is by identifying a couple that only have a connection with one company.

I lean towards a Morganite photo. Late 50’s by the way they are dressed.

Hope someone comes up with the answer.
