Opis

The Wharfedale village of Addingham saw the development of some of the earliest worsted spinning mills in Yorkshire during the 1780's. Other mills and weaving shops followed during the next century, some of them associated with the inventions of Samuel Cunliffe-Lister of Bradford.This book tells the story of this industry from the time when woolcombers and weavers worked in local farmhouses, until the closure of the mills in the 1960's and '70's.
