Northrop loom in Weaving Shed

The development of the Northrop loom was a major advancement in weaving because the Northrop loom enabled the pirn to be automatically changed and loaded into the shuttle and the pirn to be automatically filled from the cone of yarn.

This is a narrow Northrop loom and the other three behind are also Northrops. These came for County Brook Mill near Barnoldswick, Lancashire.
