Sheep, Shuttles and Sweat: how wool affected our ancestors' lives with Adèle Emm
England’s wealth was founded on the wool industry as represented in the woolsack in the House of Lords and the magnificent churches in East Anglia.
Join Adèle Emm for a talk on how wool was carded or combed, spun and woven, the lives of the workers and how the industry became increasingly industrialised. You won’t look at the humble sheep or woollen fabric the same way again.
