The Reasons for the Changes to the Original Helmshore Mill The first change to the original site was the building of Higher Mill in 1789. This was a woollen fulling and finishing mill built by the Turner family. They built the mill here because there wasn't another fulling mill in the area, the nearest was Rochdale, so there was a healthy market for their services. They chose this particular site however because it had all which powered the fulling stocks, there was already a turnpike road
I have chosen to review Andy Goldsworthy and his piece “Hanging Hole.” Andy Goldsworthy was born in Cheshire, England in 1956. As a young man, he did manual labor on local farms. He studied at both the Bradford School of Art from 1974-1975 and Preston Polytechnic in 1975. While there he listened to a presentation given by Richard Long who ultimately inspired him to create his natural artwork. He has been creating artistic works using the environment and ephemeral materials since the 1970s. In 1997
Ozymandias, the Greek name for Ramses II, is a sonnet written by Percy Bysshe Shelley. In the poem, Shelley uses irony as a form of satire, mocking tyranny. The poem was published, according to Ian Lancashire (University of Toronto) near January of 1818. At that time, for Europeans, places like Egypt were considered exotic and that adds to the popularity of the sonnet at the time. Shelley wrote this poem in a competition with Horace Smith who also wrote a similar poem, with the same overall themes

The scouse accent is very distinctive, and has very little in common with those utilized in the neighbouring regions of Cheshire and Lancashire. The accent itself isn't specific to all or any of Merseyside, with the accents of residents of St Helens and Southport, for instance, more ordinarily related to the historic Lancastrian accent. Scouse is notable in some circumstances for a fast
a Scottish Highlands girl in the field witnessed by the English Romantic poet dazzles and emotionally moves him. Having visited the Scottish highlands, mountainous regions, with his sister Dorothy and fellow poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge in 1803 (Lancashire), Wordsworth recollects in his poem the common sight of working solitary reapers in Scotland.

the powerful West Wind. ‘Ode to the West Wind’ is part of a work of Shelley’s entitled “Prometheus Unbound”. Like Prometheus, Shelley hopes that his fire, a reformist philosophy, will enlighten humanity and will free it from ignorant imprisonment (Lancashire). In this epic metaphor, Shelley expresses his idea brilliantly with vivid uses of symbolism, immense use of figurative language, and stable structure. Shelley makes it clear that the speaker of the poem is himself by using first person, and sets
children were attending school by the early 1890s. Many children continued to work as their families desperately depended on their incomes to order to make ends meet.
