MLFHS, Oldham & District Branch, Monthly Meeting

MLFHS, Oldham & District Monthly Meeting, on zoom only. Saturday, 13th January, at 2pm

'Life and Work in Cotton Lancashire, c1830-1914'

What were the major changes in the Lancashire cotton towns during the 19th century and did they affect the roles of men, women and children?

Is it possible to generalise about life and work in them or were they all distinctive?

And how different were these towns from elsewhere in Lancashire or the rest of the country?

This illustrated presentation, given by Dr. Michael Winstanley, seeks to provide answers to these questions.
