Our trip to Quarry Bank Mill - in pictures.

The boys get to work in the schoolroom.

Straight backs, arms crossed, eyes down - well done girls!

The boys practise their alphabet.

What a naughty girl!

The fastest bed makers!

Rushing to be next.

Emptying the chamber pot - eugh!

The gentleman. He was Mr Shallcross' favourite and got to sit in his own chair!

Leeches - old fashioned medicine.

The massive waterwheel - it powers the whole mill!

Excited to see the wheel in action.

'I love seeing the wool being spun!'

Wool samples ready to show prospective buyers.

The inside of a mill workers house as it would have looked in Victorian times. We saw the outside of these houses in Styal Village.

The large spinning machine in action - it was really long!

A carding machine making the raw wool into long strands.

At the wheel shaft - still very excited!

Venturing into the tunnel to look up the old chimney.

Inside the chimney - it was very cramped!
