Framed Prints
Framed Print of Price's Patent Candle Company - the Bromborough Pool Candle-Works - from the Mersey, 1854. Creator: Unknown
The Bromborough Pool Candle-Works - from the Mersey, 1854. Candle factory on Merseyside. At the Great Exhibition of 1851 the Company received a Prize Medal...another factory has been started at Liverpool, the chief port of importation for palm-oil...the works having employed in the previous winter above 900 hands, and made 100 tons - £7000 worth of candles weekly...The works include shops for the principal trades employed - engineers, smiths, copper-smiths, tinmen, coopers, carpenters, bricklayers, and weavers; and gas works. It seems rather absurd that candle-makers cannot light themselves; but, whatever gas may be in closed rooms, for great open buildings it is of course the cheapest and safest light...The fresh-air open space and cottages give the factory...a great advantage...The cottages will attach the people much more closely to the place. The little gardens are very popular...'. From Illustrated London News, 1854. Heritage Images features heritage image collections. © The Print Collector/Heritage Images
