Cotton was spun and woven into cloth by hand in England until textile machinery, developed in the late 1700s, revolutionized
its manufacture and provided a driving force for the Industrial Revolution. By the mid-19th century, cotton manufacture was an
entirely factory-based operation, notably in northern towns of Manchester and Oldham.
