More about this scene

Delph and Dobcross were two of the principal villages within Saddleworth. In the 1820s Dobcross possessed two banks (Buckley & Co and Harrop & Co), while Delph supported an agent for the Genuine Tea Co (John Brook), an attorney (Jonas Ainley), and an auctioneer (Timothy Bradbury), together with a baker, blacksmith, coal merchant, and at least four boot and shoe makers.
