Title A name given to the resource The Making of Todmorden exhibition Subject The topic of the resource Go to the Making of Todmorden in the Exhibits section of this website to see the images in chapters by subject. Description An account of the resource The Making of Todmorden’ was an exhibition staged in June 1993 at Todmorden Town Hall. Initiated by Jack Taylor MBE and Todmorden Information Centre Trust it used material researched and compiled by Jack Taylor, Betty Savage, Derek Proctor, Dennis O'Neill and members of the Todmorden Antiquarian Society. We are also indebted to the Fielden family and Roger Birch, who provided many of the images. Roger also did much of the work in putting the exhibition together. Opened by Nobel prizewinner Sir Geoffrey Wilkinson, the exhibition received great acclaim. It tells the story of Todmorden’s rich industrial heritage and its people and the success of the exhibition was in no small part due to the detailed research undertaken. It is a fine body of work and is presented here as a tribute to all those who contributed to the exhibition.

Title A name given to the resource Hill Farming & The Growth of the Cottage Industry. - MOT00114 Subject The topic of the resource Agriculture, Boy, Boys, Child, Children, Cottage Industry, Girl, Girls, Hill farming, Kid, People, Toddler, Todmorden Description An account of the resource Three hundred years ago, most of the population would be found in the farms and cottages on the upland "shelf", in areas such as Shore, Mankinholes and Bottomley. Families were self-sufficient, growing and producing most of their own food and clothing. Gradually, the merchant clothiers, the entrepreneurs of the 17th - 18th century emerged. The domestic system with its "putting-out" system became the norm. Hand loom weavers working at home would take their woven pieces to the clothier at the "takkin' in shop". In return he would furnish them with more wool to be taken home and spun and woven. The clothier would visit the cloth or piece hall to sell the woven pieces and to buy wool. Apart from the people the view has changed little in the past 200 years. The picture was taken at Hartley Royd Farm c1919, and shows John William Greenwood and his grandchildren Jim and Annie Stansfield. The father of the children was Frank Stansfield who had married John William Greenwood's daughter Sarah in 1905. The couple were from Cornholme. Sarah died in confinement at her sister's in Cornholme in 1909 and Frank later married Mary Ann Collinge in 1910.
