General notes
This photograph shows Lowerhouse Mill (Dugdale's) after the fire of 1887. The three people in the centre of the photograph are George Ingham on the left, Amy Redmond in the centre and Bertha Redmond on the right. On the back of the photograph the residents of all the houses shown have been labelled. The mill itself was built in c1836 by local industrialists, the Dugdale brothers. The family dominated the area, constructing a number of facilities for the local residents and mill workers. The mill prospered until the depression in the late 1920's. The business was placed into receivership and was later taken over by the Lancashire Cotton Corporation. They had little success in reviving the mill and it closed for good in 1933, before demolition began three years later.
