Hi all,

I usually go to Yahoo answers for these sort of things but I started using reddit recently and I'm shocked as to how efficient it can be.

So here's a shot in the dark that I don't really expect many people to know so no worries if no one can help! :)

Background information: The Cotton industry was an integral industry in the U.K industrial revolution. This industry was centred in Lancashire, Yorkshire and Cheshire.

I am currently looking for statistics on the cotton industry from 1750-1850 within Lancashire, Yorkshire or Cheshire.

Essentially, I am looking for any of the following: Cotton Mill output, Cotton mill wages, Cotton mill employment.

I am trying to find a proxy for the growth of the cotton industry in these two areas.

Any help would be dearly appreciated and I'd be happy to share my dataset in the end.

Many thanks.
