About Fencing in Keighley

Keighley in West Yorkshire was home to Low Mill, the first industrial building in the town and the first mill in Yorkshire to spin cotton when it opened in 1780, though it later switched to spinning worsted wool. The town's woollen industries and textile machinery manufacturing grew rapidly through the 19th century, helped by access to the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, and local firm Hattersley made the worsted industry's first power loom in 1834, cementing Keighley's reputation as a centre for both textiles and the engineering that supported them. The town became part of the metropolitan district of Bradford in 1974, having built its identity over more than a century as a hub of manufacturing innovation.
