The company was founded in 1784, at Lea Mills, in Matlock, Derbyshire by Peter Nightingale and his associate John Smedley. Lea Bridge provided an ideal setting for the mill as the brook which ran through the village provided motive power and a constant source of running water. Still family owned, the company continues to innovate while retaining the hand crafted finishing techniques that has established its reputation for more than two centuries.
