Long ago the people used to make a lot of articles locally.
They had mould for making candles. They used to melt tallow and pour it into the moulds. The wick was made out of cotton thread.
Long ago the people used timber ploughs. The socks were made out of iron. Carpenters used to make the ploughs.
