More about the Area   Clatterway is thought to have been named after the clatter of lead miners’ clogs, although another version believes it derives from the clatter of spinning wheels.

The cottage industry of frame knitting grew in the village as lead mining declined and in the mid-19th century it was one of the largest centres of the industry with over 140 frames.

Bonsall has a significant place in this country’s industrial history: Richard Arkwright used Bonsall Brook to power his mills and forge the factory system that still impacts on our lives today.

Bonsall Lodge is thought to have once been the Quarry Manager's house.
