10 Firwood Fold

10 Firwood Fold is a 16th-century house in Bolton, Greater Manchester, England. It is a Grade I listed building and was the birthplace of English inventor Samuel Crompton in 1753.
The Crompton family lived in the house until 1758, making a living from farming and weaving, before moving to rented quarters at nearby Hall i' th' Wood.
In 1969 the hamlet of Firwood Fold was designated Bolton's first conservation area, ensuring protection of its historic character. The unified appearance of the hamlet—simple style, local stone, and modest scale—has been preserved despite centuries of change.
