Shaw Mills
Shaw Mills is a hamlet in Nidderdale in Harrogate district, North Yorkshire, England. It lies in the valley of Thornton Beck, a tributary of the River Nidd, north west of Harrogate. The village probably takes its name from a corn mill kept by one Robert Shaw in the 16th century.〔Jennings, p.112〕 In 1812 John and George Metcalfe began spinning flax in the Low Mill at Shaw Mills〔Jennings, p.211〕 The High Mill and Low Mill both closed by 1861, but in about 1890 were restarted for silk-spinning. The mills closed soon after the First World War.〔Jennings, pp.262-3〕 An industrial settlement developed in the 19th century to serve the mills. == References ==
