- nearest is a "spinning jenny" - the first stage of automation in the textile industry, up from the purely domestic or cottage [pre-industrial] scale.
- in the middle is an unpowered hand loom [cloth width determined by how far you could lob the shuttle].
- furthest away is a domestic spinning wheel and a set of hand carding tools.

Hollins Mill, Todmorden and Walsden in Calderdale, was built by the Ormerod family as an integrated cotton mill between 1856 and 1858. In 1905 it was bought by Caleb Hoyle, and continued with the Hoyle name until 1930 when it was bought by W.A.Barker, continuing in cotton spinning and manufacturing until after 1963. The weaving shed with its northlight roof is alongside Rochdale Road whilst the spinning mill is in the background with the hip-roofed engine house standing forward to allow efficient drive to both areas. The spinning mill contained 30,000 spindles and the weaving shed had 600 looms. It is listed Grade II but the weaving shed has seen significant recent demolition.

This terraced row on Ashbourne Road in Leek harks back to the days of cottage industry with a series of garret rooms on the top floor. These would have housed hand looms for weaving silk cloth. The long windows were designed to allow maximum light into the room. Since I took this photo most of the windows and doors have been replaced with plastic.

On the Bolaven Plateau, in southern Laos, we found two ladies busily weaving with what I can best describe as portable looms. The tension of the loom being adjusted by the toes! They were happy to be photographed and were producing some lovely fabric. See also PiPs.

In the same village with the rice wine, this lady was busily weaving marvellous creations, as seen here and in the PiP, in a very basic thatched hut with an earthen floor. Best viewed large.
