History of Hyde
Hyde grew dramatically during the Industrial Revolution around cotton spinning and hat manufacturing, with the Ashton Canal providing vital transport links from 1796. The town was home to the Hyde Wakes, a famous annual fair. Hyde's industrial heritage is preserved in Tameside Local Studies, which documents the town's working-class history through the cotton and hat manufacturing eras of the 19th and 20th centuries.
