Axminster Carpets Ltd
Carpet manufacture started in Axminster in 1755 but in 1835 the looms from Whitty's factory were taken to Wilton. The industry recommenced in the 1930s with a modern factory at this site in Gamberlake. This is a large site but parts appear to be traversed by paths used by the public.
