Trefriw Woollen Mills
At Trefriw Woollen Mills we manufacture traditional Welsh bedspreads, tweeds and travelling rugs. Our Welsh tapestry is made into cushions, dinner sets, shoulder bags and purses. Our tweed is tailored into hats, caps, jackets, capes, ruanas and skirts.
See Weaving in Action
See the weaving and hydro-electric turbines at Trefriw Woollen Mills in the beautiful Conwy Valley, North Wales.
Tour the working mill museum and see the machines on which the raw wool is transformed into beautiful bedspreads, tapestries and tweeds. We carry out all the processes from fleece to fabric, on carding engines, spinning mules, doubling machine, warping mill and Dobcross looms.
Most of the machinery dates back to the 1950's or 1960's and shows the textile processes introduced in the Industrial Revolution and before computerisation.
Machines operate according to production requirements. Our water turbines date from the 1930's and 1940's and still produce electricity to power the mill.
Try Weaving For Yourself
Hand spinning is demonstrated in the summer season and there is also an opportunity to try weaving yourself on small hand looms. See our Opening times (below) for more information.
The Weaver's Garden has specimen plants which provide fibres, natural dyes, textile tools, soaps, and moth repellents.
