What to Focus On

  • Proto-industrialisation means large-scale production for an international market without factories.
  • Merchants organised production in the countryside.
  • Peasant households used this work to supplement farming income.
  • The earliest factories in England appeared by the 1730s.
  • Cotton led industrial growth in the first phase up to the 1840s.
  • Arkwright’s cotton mill gathered many processes under one roof.
  • Cotton led British industrial growth first, then iron and steel after the 1840s.
  • Britain’s iron and steel exports were worth about £77 million in 1873.
  • Less than 20 per cent of the workforce was in advanced industrial sectors at the end of the nineteenth century.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Industrialisation began only when factories appeared, so earlier production was not industrial at all.

The industrial workforce in mid-nineteenth-century Britain mainly consisted of machine operators.

The Spinning Jenny was introduced to help all workers and did not create resistance.
