Meltham Mills

Meltham，This small town and parish located in the Kirkley metropolitan area of West Yorkshire, England, has rich historical and cultural heritage. It is located in the Holme Valley, beneath Wessenden Moor, just 4.5 miles southwest of Huddersfield, near the edge of Peaks National Park.

The story of Meltham Mills began in the late 18th century when William Brooke established a woolen mill here. In 1805, the factory transformed into a cotton mill and gradually developed into one of the largest cotton mills in Yorkshire. Brooke not only built housing for workers, but also established a school and a small church. In the mid-19th century, factories began to focus on the production of threaded yarns.

Over time, Meltham Mills experienced new developments in the late 19th century. Jonas Brooke and his brother company established the largest silk textile factory in the region at the time, employing over 1000 workers. This factory not only produces cotton, but also involves spinning various materials such as silk and wool.

Now, Meltham Mills has returned to the public eye with its outstanding textile quality and rich historical heritage. This factory represents the highest level of British textiles and is highly respected by tailors around the world. Whether it's cotton, silk, or wool, Meltham Mills has a rich history and exquisite craftsmanship.
