Happy Fence Friday

Salts Mill is a former textile mill, now an art gallery, shopping centre, and restaurant complex in Saltaire, Bradford, West Yorkshire, England. It was built by Sir Titus Salt in 1853, and the present-day 1853 Gallery takes its name from the date of the building which houses it.

Titus Salt created an entire village of houses, park, school, library, recreation and learning institute and outdoor sport facilities around the mill naming the streets after his children and family. In 1869 he was created a baronet by Queen Victoria, thus becoming Sir Titus Salt.

HFF. Sir Titus Salt, was he a beneficial dictator or just another powerful man that wanted his own way? ( no need to reply if you don't want to) Have a good weekend. Keep warm
