400 of these Northrop Jacquard looms were Makerfield’s pattern of success weaving 190,000 yards of furnishing fabrics a week in 300 different designs .

I suspect that there are no more types of these mills in Wigan now, except just for historical value. I suspect it is the same for the mining industry.
