Abstract

The example of the tentergrounds in late medieval Bruges shows how landowners—both public and private—profited from unfavourable geo-morphological conditions to create vast industrial spaces used for the drying, stretching, and shearing of woollen cloths. A combination of evidence from historical and toponymical records gives us a unique insight into the changing scale and impact of this industry on the medieval urban landscape. This evidence also reveals the ways in which these industrial spaces were controlled, appropriated, (re)organised and put to different usages by various actors, social groups, and institutions, depending on commercial changes and economic interests.

期刊介绍： Textile History is an internationally recognised, peer reviewed journal and one of the leading publications in its field. It is viewed as an important outlet for current research. Published in the spring and autumn of each year, its remit has always been to facilitate the publication of high-quality research and discussion in all aspects of scholarship arising from the history of textiles and dress. Since its foundation the scope of the journal has been substantially expanded to include articles dealing with aspects of the cultural and social history of apparel and textiles, as well as issues arising from the exhibition, preservation and interpretation of historic textiles or clothing.
