Weaver’s Cottages by Kathy Fishwick<br />
Our area has special kind of buildings, but we take so<br />
many of them for granted. Estate Agents market them as<br />
Weaver’s Cottages but what really is a weaver’s cottage?<br />
How did they originate, and how did they change the way<br />
we live. We can get some answers and go on a journey<br />
of discovery by looking very close to home.<br />
