EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken by Eileen Deste between 1966 and 1974, captures a significant moment in Burnley's industrial history. The image, titled "Weavers Triangle, Burnley, Lancashire. A view looking south east along the Leeds and Liverpool Canal from Westgate Bridge," offers a glimpse into the past when textile manufacturing dominated the town's economy. The photograph showcases the bustling scene along the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, a vital artery for the transportation of raw materials and finished textiles during the Industrial Revolution. The mills and warehouses lining the canal's banks are a testament to the area's rich textile heritage. Their red-brick facades, some adorned with intricate architectural details, stand proudly against the sky, while the water of the canal reflects the industrial activity taking place. In the distance, the Clock Tower Mills rise majestically, their clock tower reaching towards the heavens. These iconic structures, built in the late 19th century, were once the heart of Burnley's textile industry, producing high-quality textiles that were in demand both locally and internationally. The mills, with their distinctive clock tower, served as a symbol of the town's industrial prowess and economic success. The photograph not only offers a visual representation of Burnley's industrial past but also invites us to reflect on the lives of the people who worked in these mills. The scene is filled with a sense of industry and purpose, as people go about their daily tasks, contributing to the town's thriving textile industry. This photograph is a poignant reminder of Burnley's rich textile heritage and the role the Leeds and Liverpool Canal played in shaping the town's history.
