Twine, a versatile thread that weaves tales of history and craftsmanship. In Murraygate, Dundee, the birthplace of the Jute Industry, it is celebrated as an integral part of our heritage. Craftsmen skillfully create besom brooms and wooden rakes with this durable material. As if in a playful cartoon, twine seems to have a life of its own - swallowing yards upon yards of yarn. Its connection to Middlesbrough Football is undeniable; like players on the field, it binds together different elements to form a strong team. During the Victorian period, linen production thrived with the aid balling machines. The rhythmic hum echoed through factories as workers meticulously crafted each strand. The Twine packing room at The Belfast Ropework Company Ltd was filled with bundles waiting to be shipped worldwide. In another corner of the same company's premises, skilled hands were busy making window sash cords - essential for smooth operation and security. Twine making became synonymous with excellence at The Belfast Ropework Company Ltd. , where spinning twine was an art form mastered by dedicated craftsmen. The Works at The Belfast Ropework Company Ltd stood tall as a testament to their commitment towards producing high-quality twines. This bustling hub showcased innovation and tradition intertwined harmoniously. From Murraygate to Middlesbrough and all across Belfast, it has left its mark on industries far and wide.
