    There are four tailors in this parish The tailors around here have not cloth of their own for sale in their own houses.
    The cloth that the people wear around here is bought in shops. The implements used for tailoring are: thimble, scissors, needle, iron, lap board, sewing machine and a tape.
    Most of the people wear tweeds and serge.
    Shirts were made of linen woven in this district long ago.
    Stocking are made in this district from thread bought in shops.
