HISTORY

The Mill Knitters Cottage is a rare and fascinating piece of local history, originally built in the early 19th century as a framework knitter’s cottage, now being a Grade II* listed building and a part of the Mansfield Woodhouse Conservation Area. The knitting frames were located on the top floor beneath large front and rear windows, designed to provide the natural daylight needed for the work. Framework knitting was a family-based cottage industry, with adults operating the machines and children helping with finished goods. In 1844, there were 194 knitting frames in use in Mansfield Woodhouse. The Mill Knitters Cottage is believed to be the only surviving framework knitter’s cottage in the village. As the industry became more mechanised and factory-based, home working declined and the property was later converted into a grocery shop run by William Morley and his family, who are listed in local trade directories from around 1905 to 1925.
