Quarry Bank Mill April 2004 |
Quarry Bank Mill uses period machinery to weave cotton cloth. They start with bales of cotton, make their own thread, then weave and dye it. We also saw the quarters where the chilldren who worked here lived.

I wish you could hear the marvelous sounds made by the flying-shuttle looms.
