EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the enchanting atmosphere of Horrockses, Crewdson & Co Ltd's 'Cloth of the World' mill in Preston, Lancashire, during the 1920s. Established in the 18th century, Horrockses, Crewdson & Co Ltd was a prominent player in the cotton industry, with a rich history that spanned over two centuries. The company's origins can be traced back to the 1700s when the Horrockses family began weaving textiles in the Lancashire region. Over the next century, the business grew, and in 1823, it merged with Crewdson & Co to form Horrockses, Crewdson & Co Ltd. The new company continued to thrive, expanding its operations and becoming a key part of the Lancashire textile industry. This photograph offers a romanticised and idealised glimpse into the world of textile manufacture during the 1920s. The ethereal moonlit scene, with its branches reaching out towards the night sky, creates an otherworldly atmosphere. The Cloth of the World mill, with its towering smokestacks and intricate machinery, stands proudly in the background, a testament to the industry's industrial might. Despite the passage of time, the photograph retains a sense of magic and wonder, inviting us to imagine the stories and secrets that lie within the mill's walls. The Cloth of the World was a symbol of the company's global reach and its commitment to producing high-quality textiles. This photograph serves as a reminder of the rich heritage and history of the textile industry in Lancashire and the important role that companies like Horrockses, Crewdson & Co Ltd played in shaping it.
