A photograph of local mill workers. The picture includes both men and boys, but the location and the exact date are unknown.

The boys would have been half-timers. They would have worked in the mill for six hours and day and then gone to school for three hours. The law changed in 1914, which meant that children had to attend school until the age of 14.
