At the outset, it is important to say that at the moment the site is privately owned and that while Amber Valley Borough Council initiated a Compulsory Purchase Order process in 2015, that process is still at a preliminary stage. This is a preliminary overview, based on the best available, but limited, information. In particular, access to the buildings on site has been limited; while a considerable amount of the North Mill is accessible because it is occupied, access to the East Mill, now empty, was not made available to us. Also, while we have undertaken some stakeholder consultation, we have not at this stage carried out wider consultation or public engagement, nor have we undertaken detailed market research, all of which would be essential to any next stage planning for the future of the site.

Prices and Profits in Cotton Textiles During the Industrial Revolution C
PRICES AND PROFITS IN COTTON TEXTILES DURING THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION C. Knick Harley PRICES AND PROFITS IN COTTON TEXTILES DURING THE 1 INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION C. Knick Harley Department of Economics and St. Antony’s College University of Oxford Oxford OX2 6JF UK <[email protected]> Abstract Cotton textile firms led the development of machinery-based industrialization in the Industrial Revolution. This paper presents price and profits data extracted from the accounting records of three cotton firms between the 1770s and the 1820s. The course of prices and profits in cotton textiles illumine the nature of the economic processes at work. Some historians have seen the Industrial Revolution as a Schumpeterian process in which discontinuous technological change created large profits for innovators and succeeding decades were characterized by slow diffusion. Technological secrecy and imperfect capital markets limited expansion of use of the new technology and output expanded as profits were reinvested until eventually the new technology dominated. The evidence here supports a more equilibrium view which the industry expanded rapidly and prices fell in response to technological change. Price and profit evidence indicates that expansion of the industry had led to dramatic price declines by the 1780s and there is no evidence of super profits thereafter. Keywords: Industrial Revolution, cotton textiles, prices, profits. JEL Classification Codes: N63, N83 1 I would like to thank Christine Bies provided able research assistance, participants in the session on cotton textiles for the XII Congress of the International Economic Conference in Madrid, seminars at Cambridge and Oxford and Dr Tim Leung for useful comments.

Inventions in the Cotton Industry
Inventions in the Cotton Industry Paisley Thread Mill Museum A Family of Threads John Kay: The Flying Shuttle 1733 • For centuries handloom weaving had been carried out by the shuttle with the yarn on being passed slowly and awkwardly from one hand to the other. • In 1733 John Kay patented his flying shuttle which dramatically increased the speed of this process. • Kay placed shuttle boxes at each side of the loom connected by a long board, known as a shuttle race. • With cords, a single weaver, using one hand, could knock the shuttle back and forth across the loom from one shuttle box to the other. • A weaver using Kay's flying shuttle could produce much wider cloth at much faster speeds than before. James Hargreaves: The Spinning Jenny 1764 • In 1764 Hargreaves built what became known as the Spinning- Jenny. • The machine used eight spindles onto which the thread was spun. • By turning a single wheel, the operator could now spin eight threads at once. • Later, improvements were made that enabled the number to be increased to eighty. • However, the thread that the machine produced was coarse and lacked strength. Richard Arkwright: The Water Frame 1771 • Richard Arkwright: The Water Frame 1771 • In 1762 Richard Arkwright met John Kay and Thomas Highs, who were trying to produce a new spinning- machine, to improve on the Spinning-Jenny. • Kay and Highs had run out of money and Arkwright offered to employ John Kay to make the new machine, with other, local craftsman to help. • It was not long before the team produced the Spinning-Frame.

Somewhere in their heritage and upbringing these characteristics were dominant. How I wish they were still alive to enjoy with us the new bits of family history we are finding, for clues they passed along have led to many fascinating discoveries. These two brothers, Ab and Ed as they were called, only children of SE (Ed) and Aubin Fry Clarkson, actually knew a bit more about some of their mother’s family lines. This has led to exciting finds on Fry, Anderson, Bolling, Markham, Cole, Rolfe, Fleming, Champe, Slaughter, Walker, Micou, Hutchins, Brooks, Winthrop, Pintard, and even our honored bloodline to the Princess Pocahontas and her powerful father Powhatan! These families were early in Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, and Virginia.

“The Happiest Days of My Life” Searching for Utopia in Tennessee Timeline and Bibliography Tennessee State Library and Archives 403 Seventh Avenue North, Nashville, Tennessee 37243-0312 Timeline : Major Utopian Colonies 1800 Second Great Revival: religious outpouring across the mid-South follows five-day revivals during which people spoke in tongues, fell to the ground, entered near-comas, and professed their faith. 1800-50 Significant religious and political utopian communities are planted in New England, New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, and Tennessee. 1808 Congress bans the importation of slaves into the U.S. after January 1, 1808, but slave shipments to American will continue virtually unchallenged until 1859. 1809 Shaker colonies are established at South Union and Pleasant Hill, Kentucky. 1814 The Harmony Society, religious separatists led by George Rapp, found Harmonie on the Wabash in New Harmony, Indiana. 1816 The American Colonization society is formed to encourage and enable the resettlement of American slaves in Africa. Their efforts will lead to the founding of Liberia in 1820. 1819 The Panic of 1819 is the country’s first major financial crisis, with widespread unemploy- ment, numerous bank foreclosures, and a decline in manufacturing and agriculture. 1825-26 Fanny Wright buys 4,000 acres of land in West Tennessee for her utopian experiment at Nashoba. The venture is political and cultural rather than religious: Nashoba’s interracial community is an early effort to provide an alternative to slavery. 1825 The Harmonists move to Economy, Pennsylvania. Robert Owen, hoping to create a more perfect society through free education and the abolition of social classes and personal wealth, buys their remarkably well-planned Indiana town and the surrounding lands for his communitarian experiment, New Harmony.

Spinning Jenny
Spinning Jenny There were other inventors before and around the time of Richard Arkwright. The first was probably James Hargreaves from Lancashire. He invented the “Spinning Jenny” in 1864-1865 with eight and later even more spindles, which was enough to spin enough yarn to match the modern fly- shuttle. The yarn which could be produced with the Spinning Jenny, however, was not very strong. This only changed when Richard Spinning Jenny Arkwright invented the water-powered spinning frame or water frame. This was also the moment when the water from streams and rivers became essential to drive the new machines. The true origin of these inventions and the identity of the inventors is not quite clear. Especially a Mr Thomas Highs claimed that he built the Spinning Jenny and that Richard Arkwright just copied some of his ideas. Others say that John Kay, a mechanic who had worked for both, Highs and Arkwright, was the the improved Spinning Jenny rightful creator of the machines. Richard Arkwright even lost the right on his exclusive patent, which would have given him a huge advantage over every- body else. Richard Arkwright became a very impor- tant and very rich entrepreneur. If you travel around Derbyshire today you can still witness his achievements and his wealth: many of the mills, factories, workshops and houses which he owned can still be seen today. It is said, however, that he was not a very nice man and it was difficult to get along with him. Spinning frame by R. Arkwright [compiled by from information from wikipedia, some English museums and others] Spinning Jenny – Vocabulary achievement Erfolg advantage Vorteil claim behaupten, angeben entrepreneur Unternehmer especially inbesondere exclusive exklusiv get along with sb.

Education Teacher’S Kit
Industrial Heritage - The Textile Industry Education Teacher’s Kit Background There is archaeological evidence of textile production in Britain from the late-prehistoric period onwards. For many thousands of years wool was the staple textile product of Britain. The dominance of wool in the British textile industry changed rapidly during the eighteenth century with the development of mechanised silk production and then mechanised cotton production. By the mid-nineteenth century all four major branches of the textile industry (cotton, wool, flax, hemp and jute and silk) had been mechanised and the British landscape was dominated by over 10,000 mill buildings with their distinctive chimneys. Overseas competition led to a decline in the textile industry in the mid-twentieth century. Today woollen production is once again the dominant part of the sector together with artificial and man-made fibres, although output is much reduced from historic levels. Innovation Thomas Lombe’s silk mill, built in 1721, is regarded as the first factory-based textile mill in Britain. However, it was not until the handloom was developed following the introduction of John Kay’s flying shuttle in 1733 that other branches of the textile industry (notably cotton and wool) became increasingly mechanised. In the second half of the eighteenth century, a succession of major innovations including James Hargreaves’s spinning jenny (1764), Richard Arkwright’s water frame (1769), his carding engine (1775), and Samuel Crompton’s mule (1779), revolutionised the preparation and spinning of cotton and wool and led to the establishment of textile factories where several machines were housed under one roof.
