Product Information

Manchester’s middle classes moved to the suburbs, while the industrial centre became increasingly overcrowded, the population growing by 50,000 over 10 years to reach 163,700 in 1831 – a 132% increase since 1800. British cotton exports had increased almost eightfold in the same period. With 8 floors and an area of 650 square yards. Gas lighting was installed in 1809 by Boulton & Watt. By 1811, with a downturn in trade the firm of McConnel & Kennedy went bankrupt (to re-emerge later)

Built over 100 years ago, the mammoth metal powerhouse was regarded as a feat of industrial engineering. Thanks to National Lottery Funding, the engine - that churned out a massive 2,500 horsepower to feed the machinery of Trencherfield Mill - has been restored to its former glory.Earlier mill built in 1795 managed by Robert Owen, considerably extended c.1810, and then largely rebuilt in 1866. Converted to accommodation in 1993. [7] The number of cotton mills peaked at 108 in 1853, the year Manchester was granted city status. The name “Cottonopolis” – literally, the city of cotton – came into use around this time. In the year 2020, around 1.4 million experimental procedures involving animals were carried out in Britain, according to the government, mostly using mice, fish, or rats. The RSPCA argues that all experiments causing animal suffering “should be replaced with humane alternatives,” and lobbies for alternatives to animal experiments like the use of isolated cells and tissues, computer modelling and “using simple organisms, such as bacteria, to study basic bio processes.”

By this point, Bell was in touch with Jane Smith, 52, an animal rights activist who previously served as a councillor in Cheshire. Smith eventually defected from the Green Party to become Britain's first elected representative for the Animal Welfare Party. Unlike the cautious, understated Bell, Smith is outwardly passionate about animal suffering. She organises protests, creates petitions and has repeatedly tried to interest the Manchester Evening News in the story of animal flights into the airport, always in vain. Together with other local activists, Bell and Smith went to work trying to prove that Manchester had become a thriving hub for animal testing imports. Historic England. "LITTLE MILL (1282961)".
