Over 150 illustrations and gazetteer. spinning town in Britain and architects from Oldham came to dominate the business of designing cotton spinning mils in Lancashire. This book traces the history of Stott & Sons, who were one of the oldest and most prominent firms in the business. Stott, senior, set up an office in Oldham and he was later joined in partnership by two of his sons. They were also involved in the promotion of cotton spinning companies and, as a general architectural practice, designed other buildings including houses, schools and a watch factory.
