Burnley, Brunswick Chapel 1895

More about this scene
Though a good picture of a much-missed local landmark, this photograph also gives us a hint of Burnley as an industrial town. To the right of the chapel there are two large chimneys, with others in the distance. The near one is part of the Saunder Bank Ironworks, once the home of the Burnley loommakers, Butterworth & Dickinson. A little further away, and to the left, the next chimney may be at either the Burnley Gas Works or the town's Electricity Station. The latter had only just opened when this picture was taken. The other mill chimneys in the distance are in the Burnley Wood area.
