Scope and Content Map of mills and village at New Lanark, Lanarkshire New Lanark was founded in 1785 by David Dale and Richard Arkwright. It passed to Dale's son-in-law, Robert Owen, in 1799. Owen developed the village into a model community, aiming to make it both profitable and humane. As well as housing for the workers, the village contained a church, a school, a shop, a bake-house and even a nursery. Despite alterations, the mill complex is still much as Dale and Owen planned it, except for one mill (no.4) which burnt down in 1883. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
