The table outlines the workforce and factory trends in the silk industry of England and Wales from 1851 to 1901. Overall, the total workforce experienced a dramatic, steady decline, with female laborers consistently outnumbering men. Conversely, the number of factories experienced an initial spike before gradually decreasing toward the end of the period.
The total number of employees started at its peak of 130,750 in 1851 but plummeted every decade, ultimately dropping to just 38,942 by 1901. Women dominated the workforce throughout; in 1851, there were 76,786 female workers compared to 53,964 males. By 1901, both figures collapsed significantly to 25,567 and 13,375 respectively, though women maintained their substantial majority.
In contrast, the number of factories began at its lowest point of 272 in 1851, before exploding to a peak of 761 in 1861. After this initial surge, factory numbers saw minor fluctuations but generally declined, ending at 623 in 1901.
