In the early 19th century, there were many thousands of hand-loom weavers – some 85,000 in the late 1830s – many of them working from home. Their housing is quite distinctive – often single-storeyed, with an asymmetrical front having smaller windows on the longer side, each corresponding to a loom stance. These houses are most common in east and west-central Scotland, corresponding to linen and cotton weaving districts respectively. Resource pack   1     2     3     4
