  • Ref “Waterfall mill workers fight 30ft flames”
    I was there! The fire started on a loom just behind me, within minutes fires started in the next ally’s because the flames had caught the dawn that was sitting atop the steam pipes that ran above throughout the shed.
    within minutes the shed was ablaze, we did all we could to contain the fire before we were ordered out and the fire brigade took over. The image here shows the girls after the fire, this was a set up image as most of them were brought down from the winding and spinning dept. just to add glamour to the story I suppose. If this is the same image that I recall (though its hard to make out here) I am one of the lads in the background. I don’t know where ,if at all I could get a clearer image.
    If anyone can help me with this I would be most grateful.
