Bradford's Industrial Museum is, I think, my favourite museum. All the historic textile machinery has, to me, a noble magnificence, both in its shapes and complexity and also in its significance to this area and to people's lives over the years.
I've recounted in some detail on my blog in the past about the individual processes that transform raw wool into fine worsted cloth, so I won't elaborate again. (See posts in January 2025) These latest photos are my attempt to capture some of the shapes and rhythm I found in the wood, metal and wool.
... oh... and the mill cat, of course!
Those shapes and textures are very attractive - but of course I like the mill cat best :-)
