Old Photograph Women Hand Loom Weaving Kirriemuir Scotland

Old photograph of women handloom weaving in a cottage in Kirriemuir, Scotland. In the 19th Century, the town was a centre for handloom weaving and jute processing. Former jute factories are now used to manufacture synthetics. Once an important market town, Kirriemuir lies at the centre of rich farm land.
