Hall i’ th’Wood and the Jumbles Tuesday 1 September 1925

Hall i’ th’ Wood is now a museum, and was the house where Samuel Crompton invented the ‘Spinning Jenny’, which brought forward the mechanisation of the cotton industry and brought the end nearer for the hand loom weavers of old.  For Charlie it is a visit down Memory Lane for more than one reason, although I am not suggesting that he remembers Mr Crompton personally.  This day has everything, from Museums to Grandparents and eventually the Romans !
