Overview

This captivating journey takes you from the paternalistic worker villages of the early 20th century to the highly modern, robot-woven facades of tomorrow. You will uncover the hidden social, economic, and material forces that shaped this industrial power centre, and recognise how the simple act of weaving held an entire community together – for better or for worse.
