Re: Woodnook mill.

Horace will be nearly 90 now Margaret,I believe he was registered near blind in the 1950s,he rescued big Tommy Jackson from great Harwood on the top of a stack when the head opened up on him in 1958 i believe,Tommy held it together until the fire brigade arrived and Horrace laddered off the top of their ladder,Tommy Jackson then got the nickname of "turn table Tommy"because of the fire brigade having to rescue him,hehe.
