This typical 18th-century handloom weaver's cottage houses the last of the 800 looms that once worked in Kilbarchan in the 1830s.

Spinning wheels are available for the whole family to try, and there is a loom available to work on - guides are always on hand to help!

A DVD presentation on the village's involvement in the making of Paisley shawls is also available.
