Description: | August 1965. Workers in the dyehouse at Humphrey Bradley's Tingley Mills. Notice the predominance of dark colours, navy blue in particular. This is typical of the Morley trade where union cloth with its white cotton warp was dyed in the piece. The dyeing vats and other machinery for processing the lengths of cloth are on the right hand side of the dyehouse. On the left the tangled peices are being put through a line of rings about 12 feet above the floor and then opened out into their full width for drying off and further treatment.
