Join us for a unique experience in Scotland; a tour of a typical weaver's cottage which was originally built in the 1750s.
You can meet tourists and locals alike in our tea room where we serve beverages and homemade goods and share stories of the past.
Our work preserving Paisley's history and heritage is only possible thanks to our team of volunteers.
