ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OF GREAT BRITAIN IN THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY

1. We know the eighteenth century in Britain to be marked by the industrial revolution, which transformed commodity production by devel­oping factories using steam power and machinery for mass production. In the middle of the eighteenth century the basic industries for this develop­ment were coal and iron. The future of the iron industry, and of coal, was assured. These industries being successfully developed, new inventions led to power-driven machinery and factory production. 1760 may therefore be reasonably taken as the starting point for a new era.
2. The production of iron is known to have jumped from seventeen million tons in 1740 to over a hundred and twenty five million tons by the end of the century, and Britain began to export iron. All this helped to in­crease the expanding export trades. Woolen cloth had been the main ex­port of England, but in the eighteenth century the new cotton cloth became more important and the British cotton industry rose.
3. The rising demand for cotton cloth led to improvements in pro­duction. New machines appeared and this led to the factory stage. Cotton was the first industry to reach this stage. For several decades into the next century cotton provided about half the total value of British exports, and the cotton factories set the pace for the development of other industries.
