Amblers

The Amblers built Westgate House in 1814 and this adjoing mill/warehouse.Citation since then it has been Barracloughs pop factory and then in various guises as a pub and restaurant as listed here.

In the 1840s Jeremiah Ambler was possibly the richest man in Baildon, having more servants than anyone else. He was a wool merchant. Farmers brought their wool on donkeys to sell to him. It was said that if a half soveriegn rolled down Northgate it would turn itself up Westgate to Ambler's.

The building still retains the door through which the wool was hoisted into the warehouse/mill.
