Title A name given to the resource The Making of Todmorden exhibition Subject The topic of the resource Go to the Making of Todmorden in the Exhibits section of this website to see the images in chapters by subject. Description An account of the resource The Making of Todmorden’ was an exhibition staged in June 1993 at Todmorden Town Hall. Initiated by Jack Taylor MBE and Todmorden Information Centre Trust it used material researched and compiled by Jack Taylor, Betty Savage, Derek Proctor, Dennis O'Neill and members of the Todmorden Antiquarian Society. We are also indebted to the Fielden family and Roger Birch, who provided many of the images. Roger also did much of the work in putting the exhibition together. Opened by Nobel prizewinner Sir Geoffrey Wilkinson, the exhibition received great acclaim. It tells the story of Todmorden’s rich industrial heritage and its people and the success of the exhibition was in no small part due to the detailed research undertaken. It is a fine body of work and is presented here as a tribute to all those who contributed to the exhibition.

Title A name given to the resource Water Power - MOT00163 Subject The topic of the resource Buildings, Chimney, Chimneys, Lumbutts, Mill, Mills, Water Tower, Water power Description An account of the resource <strong>Lumbutts Mill 1900s</strong> - In addition to the parent mill at Waterside, Fielden Bros owned several smaller mills in the valleys around Todmorden, almost all of which were used for spinning purposes. Two of these were situated in the Lumbutts Clough - the highest one being Lumbutts Mill, followed by Jumb Mill. At Lumbutts, a remarkable system was devised for providing water power. A series of dams close to the mill fed three water wheels, positioned vertically above each other, so as to use the same water over and over again. The discharged flow then went on to drive the steam turbine at Jumb Mill and, ultimately, the water wheel at Causey Mill. Lumbutts Mill and Jumb Mill both ceased production in the 1920s. <br /><br />The photograph shows the overhead gantry used for transporting cotton goods between the two buildings on either side of the road. The mill manager's house can be seen on the right with the water wheel tower in the background. The mill has long since been demolished but the tower remains, though ruined, as a monument to industrial enterprise. Now part of an outdoor activity centre, it is occasionally used for abseiling practise.
