About Fencing in Castleford
Castleford in West Yorkshire was the birthplace in 1898 of the sculptor Henry Moore, who grew up overlooked by the slag heaps of a mining family before training at Leeds School of Art and going on to become one of the twentieth century's most celebrated artists. The town's own glassmaking industry began with its first glasshouse in 1829, producing bottles by the million for export and home use until the last manufacturer closed in the early 1980s, a heritage still remembered locally alongside Castleford's long mining history.
