History of Manchester - 3. Cradle of a Revolution
In the third part of the series we're going to try to understand why Manchester of all places came to spearhead the worldwide industrial revolution at the end of the 18th century.
First We'll take a look at the city's prominent old halls - the fine country mansions that once housed its wealthiest inhabitants. Some are where many of Manchester's districts get their names: Clayton, Old Trafford, Baguley. Others are just grand old buildings: Hough End Hall, Wythenshawe Hall, Ordsall Hall and the rapidly crumbling Hough Hall in Moston.
Then I'll try to explain how Manchester fitted into the bigger picture of early capitalism and how it suddenly became the fastest growing city in the world. Key facts that need explaining.
Finally, I'll look at the city's earliest cotton mills, including the superb Murray's Mill in Ancoats, the oldest surviving one.
