Stubbins, Lancashire, England #1

Written on the back by Harry King:
Cotton & Woolen Mills in Stubbins, Lancashire, England.

Postcards from the personal collection of my husband's grandparents. They had emigrated from Barrow-in-Furness where his grandfather Harry King was born. (Agnes originally came from Greenock Scotland.)
There are quite a few postcards from the north of England or Scotland that they either brought with them or relatives sent over to them.

What's that funnel thing on the hillside on the left?
