This old net loft or processing plant overlooks the small boat harbour of Rough Bay on Malcolm Island. It appears to still be in use to some extent, where others nearby are definitely beyond use as they are or have collapsed over time. This is a working harbour with a long history of fishing and boat building.
One of the most intriguing textiles we saw being made here are the rugs that are fabricated from old used salmon gill nets - possibly out of this net loft. We were told that currently there are only two industrious ladies on island who make these rugs. They are very beautiful and the one lady who had some in her shop wasn’t sure she was ready to sell them yet as the nets she made them from were over 100 years old. They take hours and hours of time and patience to make she said.
Thank you for the visit and comments are welcome.

Dried Fish processing | Bangladesh 🇧🇩
One of the oldest methods of food preservation is drying food. Drying or preserving dried fish in the sun is a method of keeping fish in the sun to remove water. Because of the water, various micro-organisms survive and help the fish to rot. At present the daughters of many fisher families of Bangladesh have taken this job as their profession.
