Farington Mill was only started in 1835 so I don't think Farington Mill workers would have been involved. Bashall and Boardman's factory as it was known was put up in sections. Spinning mill in 1835, the rest in 1838 got blowndown in a strong gale and had to be rebuilt. Does anyone have any info on the Leyland Mills at that time? (1818-19)
