Description: | June 1965.
View of an old-fashioned plain loom at Prospect Mills, showing a loom tuner at work on the right hand side. Plain looms were often used to weave cloth that required a woollen warp, (as seen here), as their action was not as rapid as the automatic looms and they could be stopped more easily should the warp threads break and need tieing again.
