More about this scene
Sheep fleeces were the raw material for the five mills which were once working in the village. Chair-making was another speciality, and there is still a chair-maker here by the church. Many of the stone cottages date from the 17th century, and at number 22 lived a cloth merchant, John Brabyn, who founded a Bluecoat school and almshouses in Chipping.
