Dist:0.2km<br/>Not the usual view of the house where Samuel Crompton invented and constructed the first spinning mule. The Mule revolutionised cotton spinning and enabled the cotton barons to make millions, but alas, not very much money came the inventor's way. The house is now a museum owned and run by the local authority, but in these days of financial constraints, the museum is not open to the public more than a few days a year.

Dist:0.2km<br/>Hall i' th' Wood Museum is a Tudor wooden framed house. It was originally built as a half-timbered hall in the 16th century and in the mid seventeenth century a grand stone extension in the Jacobean style was added. The house was home to Samuel Crompton who invented the Spinning Mule while living here in 1779
