Robert Owen's House, New Lanark

New Lanark is a small 18th- century village where the philanthropist and Utopian idealist Robert Owen moulded a model industrial community in the early 19th century. The imposing cotton mill buildings, the spacious and well-designed workers' housing, and the dignified educational institute and school still testify to Owen's humanism. This was the house where he lived in New Lanark
