Title
Nutclough Mill, Hebden Bridge - PNH01948
Description
This is a drying machine. After cloth was dyed or washed, it passed through this machine which consisted of cylinders, which were about 1.5 meters long and made of copper or brass. The cylinders were heated by steam and rotated thus drying the cloth.
If the cylinders developed a steam leak, or needed repairing, they were taken to Barker's tin shop on Bond Street, off Hangingroyd Lane, Hebden Bridge.
