James Hamilton of 67 Yorkshire Street, Rochdale
Possibly Hamilton (Rochdale)?
1746 Established
A J. and W. McNaught steam engine (ex-Firgrove Mill) on display at Manchester's Museum of Science and Industry has a small James Hamilton & Co nameplate on the cladding of the HP cylinder. Perhaps they overhauled or altered it.
