Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Recent surveys of textile mills in Yorkshire, Greater Manchester, and east Cheshire have laid the groundwork for future study in their respective areas. All three have necessarily referred back to precedents set in eighteenth-century Derbyshire, where water power was first successfully applied to the manufacture of both silk and cotton. Derbyshire retains an important group of early cotton mills, most of them distributed along the River Derwent and its tributaries. Recent measured surveys of five of the most significant early mills and of a number of related sites by RCHME's Threatened Buildings Sections, supplemented by photographic coverage of further sites over many years, have provided a core of information on which the article is largely based. It concentrates on the surviving physical remains of the cotton industry, but draws also on documentary and other evidence for vanished structures. | ||
