  • A video made in 1990 prior to the closure of Britannia Rope and Twine Works, Lancashire's last operational rope-walk at Edenfield near Bury. The video shows the working conditions and describes the process of cotton rope making in detail. For more great images taken at the Rope Works see www.heritagephotoarchive.co.uk

    WONDERFUL PIECE. GLAD I STOPPED BY.
    My curiosity led me here, and I love your video. Amazing to see it done. I'll have to put this one in my favorites cache for sure.

    Delighted to find this video as Watchet Boat Museum now owns this particular machine. At present it is being renovated while the museum is undergoing building work including the laying a track for the traveling headstock.
    The museum is expected to reopen in July 2016

    My family were ropemakers, but it had to close. The skill will die with my grandfather now I fear.
