I bet the noise and dust was shocking So much craftsmanship in the looms and production process, some of the photos were caught at rest periods but I bet it was tough. Thanks for sharing.
I worked in a mill during my school holidays in the 60's. Worst job I ever had by a long way and conditions then would have been hugely better than at the beginning of the century. My grandfather worked at Kaye & Stewart.

Much more satisfying than working in a call centre and a finished product one could be proud of.
They had a grim existence. Long hours of slogging and toil.
The only thing was, they didn't know of anything else, it was normal to them....
