       The ancient Romans were skillful in spinning and weaving wool, and it is from them that
the people of Northern Europe learned the art. The art of wool weaving is known to come to the
British Isles from the Romans. In the fourth century of our era Roman soldiers in Great Britain
started a wool-weaving factory at the British town of Winchester to supply themselves with
clothing.
       It is from this factory that the native population of Great Britain learned the full value of
wool, and began to spin and weave it for themselves.
       Mediaeval Britain was already famous for wool. At first, it was a large exporter of raw
wool and later, it became an exporter of woollen textiles.
       It is believed that Great Britain owed its wealth to wool. Even now the Lord Chancellor
of England has his seat in Parliament on the wool sack, and this shows the importance of wool
in the history of England.
