Woven with Heritage
Lancashire Weaving provides specialist loom maintenance, repair and restoration for traditional and modern weaving machinery across the North of England and Southern Scotland. Alongside our engineering services, we also produce small-batch handwoven textiles, keeping Lancashire’s craft heritage alive.
A Weaver’s Craft, a Lancashire Tradition
Lancashire Weaving was founded by a skilled loom technician with over 30 years of experience in the textile industry. Having worked with a wide range of looms – from modern rapier looms to heritage Hattersley looms – weaving is more than a job.
It’s a passion, a craft, and a piece of Lancashire’s history that we are proud to keep alive. Our mission is simple: to create quality, traditionally woven fabrics that celebrate the heritage of British textiles while supporting local manufacturing.
