Description

Account of the last working day at Queen Street Mill in Harle Syke, Burnley. After opening views of the area, there are scenes from inside the steam-powered mill with shots of workers and machinery in action. Ends with the mill's engine slowing down to a halt, the workers leaving and shots of the dormant looms.

This film, along with thousands of others from across the country, can also be viewed online as part of BFI: Britain on Film - player.bfi.org.uk/britain-on-film/
