In the history of Manchester, and indeed of South Lancashire as a whole, no other event or enterprise can compare with it in its far-reaching effects. The story, too, in many respects contains all the elements of a romance. It is the relation of a desperate and almost hopeless fight against opposi- tion of the most powerful and uncompromising character, and it is meet that the names and qualities of the men engaged in the strife, and the nature of the difficulties which they encountered and overcame, should find a permanent record. To rescue both individuals and incidents from oblivion, and to give a connected narrative of the course of events from the conception to the completion of the canal, is the object of the present work.

  • War and the Cotton Famine, 1861-65
    THE DIARY OF JAMES GARNETT OF LOW MOOR, CLITHEROE, 1858-65: PART 2 THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR AND THE COTTON FAMINE, 1861-65 BY OWEN ASHMORE, M.A. 1 AMES GARNETTS DIARY for the period of the cotton Jfamine contains a similar range of information to that for the earlier years: comments on the weather, local events, family and personal interests and activities, national and international affairs, developments at the mill, the state of trade in the cotton industry, other business interests of the Garnett family. There is, however, a particular emphasis on the effects of the war in America and the Diary regularly records the news from there, the state of raw cotton supply, with details of stocks imported from different parts of the world, the state of the markets for yarn and cloth. It is possible to learn from it a great deal about how one Lancashire firm managed during this difficult period. As in the earlier years there is the added interest of being able to compare what Garnett wrote, at least for part of the time, v/ith the comments of John O'Neil (John Ward), the Low Moor weaver, portions of whose Diary have also survived.2 Un­ fortunately the latter gave up making entries on 8 June 1862 and did not resume until 10 April 1864, so that there is a gap when the effects of the cotton famine were about at their worst. A reminder of the Garnett family situation may be helpful. At the beginning of 1861 the firm was in the hands of Thomas Garnett, aged 62, and his two sons: William, born in 1825, and James, the diarist, born in 1828.

  • Discovering History and Conservation in Didsbury: East Didsbury, Didsbury St
    Exploring Greater Manchester a fieldwork guide Edited by Cathy Delaney Exploring Greater Manchester 23 Discovering history and conservation in Didsbury: East Didsbury, Didsbury St. James Conservation Area Ian Douglas, Maureen Douglas and Nigel Lawson School of Environment, Education and Development, The University of Manchester [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] Aims: This walk uses the evidence of the built environment and urban greenspaces to illuminate cultural, demographic, economic and social changes over time. Didsbury village has long been regarded as a highly desirable residential suburb, but its last 150 years have been dominated by the influence of two major institutions, the former educational training college and the Shirley Institute, whose sites have been redeveloped since 1990. Today Didsbury has an exuberant, dynamic openness which surpasses that found in many of the other affluent suburbs in the deep south of Greater Manchester. The walk examines the key features of the Conservation area, particularly its listed buildings, and recent changes to it. It reveals the vestiges of the original hamlet; the late Victorian splendour of the homes of key entrepreneurs and civic leaders; the influence of the coming of railways; the important key open spaces that provide varied wildlife habitats and recreational opportunities; and the early twenty-first transformation of the village centre and the sites of former institutions. Starting point: Didsbury Village Metrolink Station. (This is also the starting point for the walk covering West Didsbury and Albert Park which is also in the Exploring Greater Manchester series). Estimated Time: 2 hours Further information: This walk is based on the pre-COVID-19 situation.

  • 2. the Growth and Decline of Cottonopolis
    2. The Growth and Decline of Cottonopolis Introduction Just where is Cottonopolis? Manchester lays claim but many Lancashire towns may contend that cotton was dominant from Preston in the North-West to Oldham, Bolton, Blackburn north of Manchester, Burnley in East Lancashire, with nearby Nelson and Colne too, and the village of Styal south of Manchester. Each cottonopolis had its own identity. Nottingham and Paisley were producers also but not on the scale of Lancashire that was synonymous with cotton. Textile manufacture began in 1363 with the arrival of Flemish weavers. In the Elizabethan era wool and linen production was prominent, followed by manufacture of fustians, a mix of linen and cotton. By 1664 the East India Company imported cotton on a vast scale. Cheap prints and calicos found a mass market even among poor people, threatening British products. A Calico Act was passed but repealed in 1774 with the invention of British machinery. This was the antidote to imports with impressive production speeds and reduced prices, given greater efficiency. Cultivation expanded to West India but attempts to grow cotton in West Africa and the West Indies had limited success owing to poor soil and non-conducive climate. With high tariffs on Indian textile workshops, British oversight of the East India Company and restriction of imports, India gradually became the prime source of supply instead of a major manufacturer. Manufacture of pure cottons transformed rapidly-growing Manchester and an arc of towns around. Cotton’s versatility meant it could be combined with linen and made into velvet. Comfortable to wear, with elegant designs and cheap products, it was little wonder demand for cotton escalated.
