| 説明 | Salts Mill, Saltaire, Bradford, West Yorkshire. A sheet of metal etched with the names of many of the individual job types that were needed to enable a large manufacturing facility to function. Such jobs were often called 'low skill', but were in fact highly skilled. Reflected in the sheet are photographs of many aspects of work in the mill. Salts Mill is a former woollen mill in Bradford, West Yorkshire. The mill and the surrounding housing was built at the behest of Sir Titus Salt, who wanted to provide both better working conditions for the mill employees and more salubrious surroundings, including improved housing. Textile production ended here in 1986 and the following year the site was bought by local entrepreneur Jonathan Silver, who regrettably died of cancer in 1997. It was his work and vision that more than anything else led to Salts Mill and surrounds becoming a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2001. Pride of place in the renovated building is a gallery devoted to the internationally renowned artist David Hockney, born in Bradford in 1937. Other areas are used for exhibitions, concerts, theatre and performances, whilst there are also cafes and restaurants, shops and antique stalls. A great place to visit for so many reasons.Salts Mill is also referred to as Salt's Mill, both forms being used in many official documents old and new. |
