About Fencing in Chorley

Chorley in Lancashire has held a market since Henry VII granted rights to the settlement in 1498, with Tuesday established from the start as market day, a tradition that continues in the town centre today. The Industrial Revolution brought cotton spinning and weaving to Chorley, and calico printing became a significant trade too, with mill machinery increasingly manufactured locally from the 1860s onwards, helping the town's population grow from around 4,500 in 1801 to roughly 12,700 by 1850 following the arrival of the Manchester and Birmingham Railway in 1842. Most of the mills that once dominated the skyline have since been demolished, but the town's long market history remains its most enduring thread.
