Description: | This is a plait made of Catherine Cookson's hair. She kept it as she was proud of her hair as a child. In her book 'Our Kate', she wrote... 'One thing of beauty I really did possess and that was my hair. It was a bright reddy chestnut and naturally wavy. Every night me grandma or our Kate put it in rags - a painful business. I lay on these rag corkscrews for many years.'
