Triptych of Grading wool, Liskeard Wool Depot, Cornwall.
Many a time we have taken our annual wool shearing here for processing, Here they are grading one of our bales (Approx 200lbs) of Romney wool. I always found it to be a very atmospheric building, especially so for Black and white photography. Now, however, it has been closed and is now up for sale to a developer, bringing to an end a long history of wool processing at this site. The Lamellion depot handled around one million kilos of wool from some 1500 producers around Devon and Cornwall.
