Abstract

Hunslet Foundry was a pioneering venture just as Leeds began its transition into a centre of engineering and textile manufacture. The foundry was built at Hunslet Carr in 1770 to serve the Middleton colliery and railway, and other south Leeds collieries. The story of its early progress reflects more than innovation in iron-making, also illuminating the growing human connections between south Yorkshire’s metalworking districts and new industrial ventures emerging in Leeds.

亨斯莱特铸造厂和工业利兹的制造

摘要

就在利兹开始转型为工程和纺织制造中心时，Hunslet Foundry 是一家开创性的企业。该铸造厂于 1770 年在亨斯莱特卡尔建造，为米德尔顿煤矿和铁路以及其他南利兹煤矿提供服务。其早期进展的故事不仅反映了炼铁方面的创新，还说明了南约克郡金属加工区与利兹新兴工业企业之间日益增长的人际关系。
