Bottesford lace workers in workshop on Queen Street

The lace-silk workshop, Queen Street.

Mrs Mauren Hill

In the lace workshop on Queen Street – there is a discussion about what exactly the women are doing, it could be lace finishing or it could be mending parachute silk during WW1. Also, the location is uncertain, either at the former mill on Queen St. or in the old maltings building on the same street.
