There were 2 railways, the Liverpool and Manchester Railway.

These railways were made in 1830. 
  
They were used to transport people and goods. 

The Liverpool was in use for 150 years +. 

It is now a Science and Industry Museum.

-It wasn’t uncommon for children to work in textile factories 
-Factories from the outside looked like big buildings made of bricks and contained many windows.

2. It made the products more recognizable and they were brightly colored to be seen easier.
3. Had to make digital copies otherwise the album can be ruined.
4.they made a display of the shipper tickets to show where cloth has went to in Manchester.
5.visitors can only see one page of the album and the book would no longer be accessible to researchers.

Cotton was considered very valuable because it was lighter than woolen cloth, and was traded for a lot of things.
Even though a roller spinning machine was developed, nobody was able to make the perfect cotton.
Richard Arkwright was born in 1732 to a poor family
He developed a better spinning machine to spin cotton and used it in his factories. 
He used water power in his factories over horsepower.
His idea changed industrial factories forever, and was much more efficient than what was used before.
In the end, he was the first to use steam power and patented his system.]]> 2022-01-10 13:25:05 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabethwelsh2/2bud9ynykmtef7dr/wish/1983774217 Layne Belmonte-Pollution https://padlet.com/elizabethwelsh2/2bud9ynykmtef7dr/wish/1983779162
  • Pollution was a big factor in manchester when it comes to working.
  • People were getting sick from all the smoke and diseases that were all around the air, and even the water that they were drinking.
  • But nobody cared that people were getting sick and died because work was the number 1 thing to do.
  • Population increased to an insane amount.
  • The city of Manchester went to green fields and rivers to engines and factories and random buildings, with little or no green fields at all.

  • Factories dumped many gallons of contaminated water & waste into the rivers 
  • The town’s textile dye-works polluted the water the most & were also the most reliant on water at the time 
  • Garbage would be disposed of in the water from both sides of the river
  • Polluting the rivers made it more likely to flood
  • Manchester claimed the water was the only place they could throw away their waste
  • Near the 1860s, the river got so polluted that the riverbed rose to about 3 inches a year 
  • The great flood spread awareness to the issue of river pollution

    Around 7 million people every year die from diseases caused by harmful unclean air or polluted air.

    At the time people did not understand the long term consequences of burning fossil fuels.

    Coughing, stinging eyes, and perpetual gloom was became common with industrial Manchester.

    People were shocked and disgusted by all the smoke, dirt, and stench coming from Manchester’s distinctive forest of chimneys. 

    Dirty homes, dark skies, and respiratory disease were all factors because of this. 

    At the time this urban air pollution was called ‘the smoke nuisance’ ]]>     2022-01-10 13:30:50 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabethwelsh2/2bud9ynykmtef7dr/wish/1983786031     SLUMS AND SUBURBS: WATER AND SANITATION IN THE FIRST INDUSTRIAL CITY https://padlet.com/elizabethwelsh2/2bud9ynykmtef7dr/wish/1983788071

  • Death rates increased and expectancies plummeted.
  • Diseases such as typhoid and dysentery occurs and spread all throughout town like world fire.
  • 11,000 out of 47,000 had piped water. 12,000 had to rely on shared tap in the street, while the rest got water from shallow wells and streams. 
  • Streams were often polluted because factories were closely built and used the stream to dispose waste.  
  • Plummeted toilets connected to drains which were discharged in the rivers
  • Industries dumped gallons of contaminated water along with tons of solid waste into the rivers
  • In 1851, the demand for clean warmer continued to increase, so the corporation decided to complete the first stage of a huge project to supply Manchester with water from Longdendale in the Peak District.

Most children who wore them didn’t actually own them, they were lent by Charter street ragged school in Angel Meadow to children whose families could not afford to buy shoes. Angel Meadow,
    by the middle of the 19th century one of Manchester’s worst slum districts, provided food, clothing and basic education to Manchester’s poorest people.

    - Henry Perkin was a research chemist, and started experimenting from an early age.
    - Perkin invented synthetic dye on accident while he was trying to make a synthetic treatment for malaria.
    - He was only 18 when he was given assignments to work kith aniline. Something throughout the experiment caused something to oxidize and it turned into a purple dye.
    - The thing that made the first dye was coal tar, so now it was no longer waste and used for good.
    - Perkin took out a patent on his accidental discovery on August 26, 1856. Perkin was able to retire from business aged 36, and spent the rest of his life carrying out research in other areas of chemistry.

    • Clogs were a day-to-day essential object. Clogs were shoes that Manchester women, men, and children had in the 1870s.

    •  Children who wore the clogs never owned them, and they were often given to them by the Charter Street Ragged School to children who couldn’t afford to buy them. 

    • Clogs are stamped in order to stop their families from pawning them for money. The stamps were easily visible and clear.

    • Workers earned good wages in textile mills. Cotton shortages or low demand would shut down the mills, so work was never guaranteed. 

    • Workers couldn’t afford basic human needs, so the schools provided food, clothing, and basic education the poor.

    • Items that were added to the Museum of Science and Industry besides the clogs was the the Cotton Gin. The cotton gin is a sad part of slavery.

    • Cotton transformed Manchester. It became a very popular city unlike anything before. It was populated by ingenious makers and profit seekers. 

    • Manchester had extreme poverty, but the cotton industry created a new urban community.
