In that time, in Britain, the manufacture of things was made by people in their own homes. The utensils that were used for manufacture were elemental tools and poor quality machines if there were any. The English territory was full of coal and the British used to the maximum to power new machines and initiate the Industrial Revolution, specifically developing the textile industry.
The coal was the key element that helped to power industrialization in England. Coal was plenty and it was easy to extract. There used to be a lot of coal deposits in the Surface of the land. <em>There were deposits of coal in different places such as Edinburgh, Manchester, Glasgow, Bristol, Sheffield, and Leeds. </em>
