This fine photograph shows the former handloom weaving village of Mill Bank in an almost unspoiled state. At one time there were many such villages in the Pennines. Sadly, since this photograph, a degree of gentrification has set in, as greedy eyes from Manchester and Leeds have spied money-making possibilities here.
