CROSS COMPOUND MILL STEAM ENGINE AND AND WEAVING MACHINERY RUNNING AT MASSONS MILL

[@theeastman9136]

I just love these XIX th century machines and I really admired the expertise of the young lady; a real maestro of the machinery. ♥️

Those weaving machines are so LOUD. Even the camera mic is clipping haha. Can't imagine the hearing damage standing in an hall with 100 of those things, every day for hours on end.

[@teescottageguyproductions]

Absolutely! When I was filming them going my ears were ringing after a while!!

[@WavzonRox39]

Fascinating, Thank you for capturing all these!

[@teescottageguyproductions]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@joshtaylor485]

amazing machinery, ty for recording it

[@teescottageguyproductions]

Thanks!

[@paulshouse524]

Is the engine running on steam, or being driven electrically? Fascinating either way.

[@teescottageguyproductions]

It used to work on steam but it’s now electric

green italian tiles on the walls, looks like this engine's age it's about 100 or more years

[@teescottageguyproductions]

This engine isn’t original to this mill. This engine was moved to this mill from Jubilee Mill in 2000 but the engine was built in 1911

I realize that was the dress of the era, but all those open unguarded moving parts and loose, flowing dresses makes the safety instructor in me cringe!

[@teescottageguyproductions]

I’m sure she was fully trained in how to operate the engines and machines in the period clothing
