James Cropper Paper Mill, Burneside
James Cropper Paper Mill, Burneside, Cumbria.
This paper mill, established in 1845 is the only working mill left on the River Kent, although it no longer relies on the water power from the river. A steam turbine was installed in 1920 which also provided electricity to the village long before other parts of the county. The village was built around the mill and the mill owners have a long history of trying to help the community. They built the church, school and village hall, and even owned the pub, ploughing the profits back into local housing.
