1 янв 1523 г. - bastard loom

Описание:

In 1498 the Beverley weaver Robert Dacres left to his friend John Williamson <i>unum bastard-lome </i>and to his apprentice another <i>bastard-lome.</i> Both the looms were dual purpose, the apprentice’s for example had <i>iiij heyldes et sleys pro panno lineo et iiij pro panno canabeo</i> (SS53/137). The name may be connected with the weaving of bastard cloth, referred to in an Act of 1483 and again in 1523: <i>White brode woollen clothes with Crumpil listes, otherwise called bastardes</i> (SAL) or it may be that the loom was irregular in certain respects. Online references indicate that the term was still in use in the 1980s.
