Club Row

Photograph at the Club Row blue plaque

Club Row This terrace of 20 properties was erected between 1794 and 1804. Thought to be the oldest surviving example of properties built by a building society in the world. Each had a basement room for a handloom, a coalhouse and a 'Necessary'. The 20 men who clubbed together to form the building society were local yeomen, handloom weavers and stonemasons.
