Description: Weaving shed, Queen Street Mill A typical shed. There would be 800-1200 Lancashire looms in a typical shed, each taking about 0.5 horsepower of steam engine power and producing an incredible din. The mill girls communicated by lip reading a skill called mee-mawing (somebody will correct the spelling).
