Description: | Manningham Mills, originally Lily Croft Mill, was established in 1838 as a worsted and combing mill. Rebuilt in the 1870s following a fire, between 1870 and 1888 it grew into the largest silk spinning and weaving mill in England. The imposing entrance with its crest proclaims the new-found social standing of the owner. | Subjects: | Combing Works Worsted Mill Silk Mill Cartouche Dentil Voussoir Portico Cornice Industry | Source: | English Heritage - Viewfinder | Creator: | staff | Identifier: | http://viewfinder.english-heritage.org.u... | Language: | en | Go to resource |
