Wool has been associated with Yorkshire for centuries. Until the fifteenth century, wool from the North of England was sent to Flanders to be made into cloth. By the sixteenth century, the towns of Leeds and Bradford were themselves becoming important centres for wool and goods made from wool.
During the nineteenth century, Manchester became a very important centre for the production of cotton. It was even known as “Cottonopolis”. Raw cotton came from the USA to the port of Liverpool, on the north-west coast. The cotton was transported by canal or by train to the nearby city of Manchester, where cotton goods were manufactured. They were then exported to the rest of the world.
