machines - 5

A wonderful set of images Berny, when they were running the noise would have been incredible they don't appear to be that old as there is no overhead drive shaft and belts. In the past a lot of child labour was used in the weaving sheds. On my page 7 there are a couple of shots from a restored mill, Quarry Bank Mill

I already detected your treasures 4 months ago, Peter, and yes, they seem to be a bit older. But also machines of the end of the 19th century could be found in this mill. Thank you!

Sad to hear of the failure of the business and his eventual death, obviously
" still on the job"

It is as if they ran out without any notice. Wonderful series.
