  • Cotton and the Community: Exploring Changing Concepts of Identity and Community on Lancashire’S Cotton Frontier C.1890-1950
    Cotton and the Community: Exploring Changing Concepts of Identity and Community on Lancashire’s Cotton Frontier c.1890-1950 By Jack Southern A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment for the requirements for the degree of a PhD, at the University of Central Lancashire April 2016 1 i University of Central Lancashire STUDENT DECLARATION FORM I declare that whilst being registered as a candidate of the research degree, I have not been a registered candidate or enrolled student for another aware of the University or other academic or professional institution. I declare that no material contained in this thesis has been used for any other submission for an academic award and is solely my own work. Signature of Candidate ________________________________________________ Type of Award: Doctor of Philosophy School: Education and Social Sciences ii ABSTRACT This thesis explores the evolution of identity and community within north east Lancashire during a period when the area gained regional and national prominence through its involvement in the cotton industry. It examines how the overarching shared culture of the area could evolve under altering economic conditions, and how expressions of identity fluctuated through the cotton industry’s peak and decline. In effect, it explores how local populations could shape and be shaped by the cotton industry. By focusing on a compact area with diverse settlements, this thesis contributes to the wider understanding of what it was to live in an area dominated by a single industry. The complex legacy that the cotton industry’s decline has had is explored through a range of settlement types, from large town to small village.

  • A Working Vocabulary for the Study of Early Bobbin Lace 2015
    A Working Vocabulary for the study of Early Bobbin Lace 2015 Introduction This is an attempt to define words used when discussing early bobbin lace; assembling the list has proved an incredibly difficult task! Among the problems are: the imprecision of the English language; the way words change their meaning over years/centuries; the differences between American English, English English and translations between English and other languages... The list has been compiled with the help of colleagues in Australia, Sweden, UK and USA; we come from very different experiences and in some cases it has been impossible to reach a precise definition that we all agree. In these cases either alternatives are given, or I have made decisions on which word to use. As the heading says, this is a working vocabulary, one I and others can use when studying early lace, and I am open to persuasion that different words and definitions might be better. 2015 Early bobbin lace - an open braid or fabric featuring plaits and twisted pairs, created by manipulation of multiple threads (each held on a small handle known as a bobbin); as made from the first half of the sixteenth century until an abrupt change in style in the1630s. Described in the sixteenth century as Bone Lace, also called Passamayne Lace (from the French for braid or trimming) or passement aux fuseaux. Reconstruction - a copy that, given the constraints of modern materials, is as close as possible to the original lace in size/proportion and technique. Interpretation - reproduction of lace from patterns or paintings, or where it is not possible to see the exact structure and/or proportions of the original lace Adaptation - taking an original lace, pattern or illustration and working it in a completely different material, scale or proportion.

    [email protected] http://ttusher.orgfree.com Textile manufacturing terminology The manufacture of textiles is one of the oldest of human technologies. In order to make textiles, the first requirement is a source of fibre from which a yarn can be made, primarily by spinning. (Both fibre and fiber are used in this article.) The yarn is processed by knitting or weaving, which turns yarn into cloth. The machine used for weaving is the loom. For decoration, the process of colouring yarn or the finished material is dyeing. For more information of the various steps, see textile manufacturing. A__________________________________________________________________ Absorbency A measure of how much water a fabric can absorb. Acetate Acetate is a synthetic fiber. Acrylic Acrylic fiber is a synthetic polymer fiber that contains at least 85% acrylonitrile. Aida cloth Aida cloth is a coarse open-weave fabric traditionally used for cross-stitch. Alnage Alnage is the official supervision of the shape and quality of manufactured woolen cloth. Alpaca Alpaca is a name given to two distinct things. It is primarily a term applied to the wool of the Peruvian alpaca. It is, however, more broadly applied to a style of fabric originally made from alpaca fiber but now frequently made from a similar type of fiber. Angora Angora refers to the hair of either the Angora goat or the Angora rabbit, or the fabric made from Angora rabbit; see Angora wool. (Fabric made from angora goat is mohair.) Angora wool Angora wool is a generic term for either Mohair if the hair is from an Angora goat or Angora fabric if the hair is from an Angora rabbit.

The objective is to carry out a desk study, supplemented with a walk over survey, to form a Preliminary Risk Assessment to consider contamination, landfill gas and geotechnical issues. SITE DESCRIPTION The site is an almost rectangular plot, about 137 by 126 metres, located to the southwest of Talbot Street in Briercliffe and at OS Grid Reference 386492, 434915. A limited inspection on 4/7/17 by Mr S Gimeno (Geotechnician) showed the site to comprise a former cotton mill, now used for pharmaceutical manufacture, with yards to the east and south and a grass field to the west. The main building was a north light weaving shed and joined to the south was stone built with extensions and alterations. To the west was a portacabin style hard roof office probably built of timber. Just north was a fenced compound for aircon condenser units. In the southeast corner was a stone built electrical substation. In the northeast corner was a gas regulator box/building. An oil drum with hand pump was seen in the southeast corner. This is a residential area with houses on all sides, including gardens to the north, southeast and southwest. The area slopes down to the southwest at about 1 in 25.

  • Dark Age Tablet Weaving
    Dark Age Tablet Weaving for Viking and Anglo-Saxon re-enactors 1 Introduction Tablet weaving, also known as card weaving, is a method of using square tablets with holes in the corners to weave narrow decorative bands made of wool, linen or silk threads. Tablet weaving was widespread in Europe and Britain in the first millenium AD and is an excellent craft for historical re-enactors as it is portable, interesting, little known nowadays and you can make beautiful bands to decorate your outfit. However, creating replicas of Dark Age bands is challenging. Many of the surviving historic bands are difficult to weave, and so most re-enactors either buy in tablet-weaving or weave simplified bands, and may use patterns and techniques that aren't appropriate to the Dark Ages. The aim of this document is to describe the characteristic styles and methods of Dark Age tablet- weaving. There is also information about materials, equipment and tablet-weaving techniques. Perhaps the most striking theme of the historic bands is inventiveness, and the advantage of the historic techniques is that they allow the weaver to create a far wider range of patterns than the modern methods, which were mostly developed in the 19th and 20th centuries as tablet-weaving was 'rediscovered' in Europe1. This document isn't exhaustive, and I recommend that the interested reader explore further patterns and techniques. There are many good patterns available online. Just remember, as I once read on the internet, the first instruction in tablet weaving is “remove the cat”. Please contact me with any comments or corrections.

The purpose of the study was to test the hypothesis that useful anthropological/ archaeological and biomedical information could be derived from bodies even when no reliable provenience for recovered mum- mies is known. Results of studies on these 13 bodies enabled recognition of their cultural identity, and indicated probable extensive exposure to cold marine water (diving?) in the form of external auditory exostoses.
