Burnley grew up where the River Brun meets the River Calder, and its name probably means "meadow by the River Brun". Once the Leeds and Liverpool Canal arrived in 1796, dozens of new mills followed, and at its peak the town was one of the world's largest producers of cotton cloth. The old mills and warehouses of the Weavers' Triangle still cluster along the canal, just west of the town centre.
