Low Moor, Lancashire : ウィキペディア英語版 | Low Moor, Lancashire Low Moor is a hamlet which is part of the town of Clitheroe, located in Lancashire, England. It is situated two miles southwest of Clitheroe proper. It is significant for being a well documented mill village. ==History== In the nineteenth century the hamlet was home to Low Moor Mill, "a most extensive cotton manufacture, with power looms, put in motion by an immense body of machinery".〔"Low Moor", in Stephen Reynolds Clarke, ''The New Lancashire Gazetteer'' (London, 1830), pp. 101-102.〕 Employment and census data from the community has provided an important case study in the social history of the nineteenth-century cotton industry.〔Owen Ashmore, "Low Moor, Clitheroe: A Nineteenth-Century Factory Community", ''Transactions of the Lancashire and Cheshire Antiquarian Society'' 73-74 (1963-1964), pp. 124-152; cited in Sonya O. Rose, ''Limited Livelihoods: Gender and Class in Nineteenth Century England'' (London, 1992), passim.〕 This cotton mill, taken over by Jeremiah Garnett and Timothy Horsfall in 1799, closed in 1930 and was demolished. The workers' cottages survived. Two diaries of historical interest survive, one written by the weaver John O'Neill and one by a co-owner of the factory, James Garnett.〔Owen Ashmore, ''Industrial Archaeology of North-west England'' (Manchester University Press, 1982), pp. 197-198.〕
