A social milestone founded in 1784 by the philanthropist Richard Owen, consisting of a textile mill driven by water and a complete settlement with workers' dwellings, school and other services. It was socially far ahead of its time and comparable to the Quarry Bank Mill(NT) in Styal, Cheshire founded by Samuel Greg also in 1784.
