Batley
Batley has a great sense of history with its vast mill complexes,
many of which have now been refurbished for light industrial
and retail space. Batley's heritage can be traced back to the
start of the Industrial revolution when Benjamin Law, a local
man, decided to mix finely shredded rags with virgin wool to
produce woven cloth known as 'shoddy', which had a revolutionary
effect on the textile industry. Since then Batley has had many
ups and downs going from rags to riches and back to rags.
