History

The Colne Valley Museum is in the Colne Valley at Golcar, Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, England. The museum consists of four converted 19th-century weavers' cottages. The museum provides an insight into what life was like for a weaver in the early 1850s. The museum includes a clog-maker's workshop, a handloom chamber, a spinning room, a cropping room, kitchen and living rooms. The museum is run entirely by volunteers.
