Explain How Far Nelsons Fits into the Overall Development...

If we look at Nelsons Industry and work, its evidence is similar to other Northern parts of Britain because it teaches us that Nelson changed from being very rural to an industrialised area. Farm lands were replaced by factories. This is typical to what happened in other textile towns. This is reinforced by source N. The two maps show us the difference that occurred in 57 years. It shows the 1844 version and 1901 version of Nelson. In 1844 we can see that most of the area was of rural life and poorly populated however 57 years later it shows us a much more industrialised version with very crowded areas. A number of Textile Factories were built, which lead people migrating from other towns to find work. Mills were intentionally built†¦show more content†¦Source L signifies that there was no age limit for people to start working. Usually a â€Å"family works together†¦father, mother, sons and daughters†. Many children started work at the age of 5. Some children were even set out to carry out very inappropriate jobs, such as picking up pieces of left over cotton from under working machines. It shows that employees are happy working together and no harm has been caused towards them. This is very dangerous and would result in causing major injury. However this source has been written by â€Å"William Ecroyd† the founder of the Ecroyd factory. We cannot trust this source to a great extent because Ecroyd may just want to give his mill a good name and may be mendacious about what he is writing. After World War II Britain could no longer afford the expense of administering one quarter of the world’s population, it wanted to protect its own land which comprised 1/600th area of World , the current UK [7]. In the mid 1900’s, Britain lost its empire. This meant that Britain could no longer trade with the other countries they had power over. Therefore a huge majority of mills, weaving sheds, coal mines and factories had closed down due to government regulations. Britain stopped exporting and importing goods and this directed to a lot of people not having employment. This then gave way to China, Russia and the USA to embark upon the golden opportunity and take over.
