The Linen Industry in Knaresborough
4 March at 7:30 pm – 8:30 pm
By Claire Joia
The Castle Mills are prominent on Waterside but there was more to this industry than one mill and one company. Claire will talk us through the development of the industry and the people involved in it over the centuries.
Claire is a volunteer at Knaresborough Museum Association and has been researching the linen industry in the town for several years. She has been instrumental in putting together the exhibitions on the industry that will be the centrepieces of the Heritage Centre in 2024 and 2025.
