New Lanark was an 18th century utopian industrial settlement founded on the River Clyde in Scotland by David Dale and expanded by Robert Owen. It featured restored cotton mill buildings, workers' housing, and a school and played an important role in the Industrial Revolution and the history of urban planning by establishing model working and living conditions for residents, including shorter working hours, affordable housing, and education opportunities.
