Description: | This old plant once had a beam engine, and there had no doubt also been fulling stocks. The single cylinder horizontal-condensing engine was by Mark Shaw (1904) and the water tank on the roof was by Bagshaws of Batley (1878). Although a small local foundry, Mark Shaw did quite large work and made several vertical crank overhead engines used in the Yorkshire mills. This woollen cloth mill was closed in the late 1960s and all was scrapped. | Subjects: | Steam Engine Condensing Steam Engine Industry | Source: | English Heritage - Viewfinder | Creator: | Watkins, George | Identifier: | http://viewfinder.english-heritage.org.u... | Language: | en | Go to resource |
