Part of “We are West Yorkshire”.
This photographic exhibition explores the lives of women during the 19th and early 20th centuries in roles as diverse as rag sorters and bomb makers, discovers the limitations placed on women’s work and reveals the opportunities created by the First World War. Part of “We Are West Yorkshire”, a programme of exhibitions that celebrate some of the different qualities that make West Yorkshire so unique.
This exhibition draws extensively from the Kirklees Image Archive, a digitised collection of over 60,000 images curated and managed by Kirklees Museums and Galleries.
