Why was Quarry Bank Mill so successful?

Hopefully, this website will explain the reasons for why and how Quarry Bank Mill was so successful. 

Before the late 18th century no one had even seen a factory like this one below. No one would have believed such a thing could have been made possible. No one had ever worked like this, in such a big space with so many workers.

Quarry Bank Mill is a building that no one could have ever imagined.

Yet a man called Samuel Greg built this enormous factory at Styal in Cheshire in 1784. If you'd like to know a bit more about how this factory came to being built, this summary might help you.
