Folly Hall Mill, Huddersfield, is a Grade 2 listed building dating from 1844. The spinning mill was in use for nearly 150 years until its closure in 1993. The fireproof mill was most famously occupied by Joseph Lumb's, a world renowned producer of fine worsted yarn. Lumb's 'Golden Bale' is still internationally recognized as a standard for worsted. The wool used to make the quality yarn in the mill came from Austrailia and a large proportion of the workforce were bused in from Barnsley.
