The Mill - The Present

Through the loomToday most of the Mills production, is turned over to the manufacture of carpets

  and floor rugs. As well as our own ranges we weave to commission. Recent work includes weaving floor rugs from yarn provided by customers who have their own sheep and the weaving of reproduction historic floor coverings.

 

 

The weaving shed contains 5 - 90" Dobcross looms and associated cone and bobbin winders. The warper occupies the old part of the factory which once housed the spinning mule.

 

Where once the carding engines were sited the building has been turned into a Tea Room, the old drive wheel from the water wheel and overhead line shafts can still be seen. The engine shed and small weaving shed are now a shop for the many visitors.
