Saltaire, West Yorkshire.
Saltaire Mills - The first mill & chimney - now Salt's Mill, 1850-53.
By Lockwood & Mawson.
Grade ll* listed.

Saltaire Village.
Established as a World Heritage Site in 2001, Saltaire village was originally founded in 1853 by Sir Titus Salt, a leading industrialist in the Yorkshire woollen industry.

He built a new factory, Saltaire Mills, and around it a model village for his workers. The new stone houses were a huge improvement on the slums of nearby Bradford and the village also had its own bathhouses, hospital, school, library, church, reading room, concert hall, gymnasium, almshouses, allotments and park. Conditions for the workers at Salt’s Mill were substantially better than for those at nearby mills, even though the hours they worked would still have been long and arduous.

Sir Titus died in 1876 and was interred in the mausoleum adjacent to the church he funded in Saltaire.
