L.S.2 wool storehouse. View in wool sorting room. A black and white photograph showing large baskets of raw wool being readied to move to the sorting room. The tracks for moving the wool around the mill are prominently shown in this photograph. What look like sprayers to combat fires are attached to pipes running across the ceiling. Several full large cloth bags close to what appear to be the pulleys are shown. While there is no description of their purpose, it appears the wool arrives in this room in large cloth bags, where it is unpacked and moved into the sorting room on the tracks.
