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.
