More about this scene
In the 18th century, fast flowing streams powered a variety of mills around the village, and many of its cottages date from this period, built to house an expanding work force. But the village had prospered before then, and in one cottage lived John Brabin, a 17th-century cloth merchant and dyer whose wealth founded a school.
