LISTER’S Mill has dominated the Bradford skyline since it was built in grand Italianate style in 1871. Built by Samuel Cunliffe Lister to replace a mill that had burned down on the Manningham site, it was the world s largest velvet and silk factory in the world - an industrial giant when Bradford was leading the way in textile manufacturing. Now home to residential, business and community use, the sprawling site was the largest mill in the north of England, with 27 acres of floor space and its imposing 249ft high chimney. The great Manningham Mills strike in the early 1890s led directly to the founding of the Independent Labour Party.
