Tech/Engineering - Textiles / Clothing / Fashion | | French term or phrase: foulerie | 'Au cours du XIXe siècle, une scierie à marbre (B), une scierie à bois et foulerie (C), une fabrique de peignes (E), une filature dotée d’une turbine (D) vont aussi utiliser l’énergie hydraulique.'
Foulerie = atelier de foulage de tissus
For foulerie I think 'textile press' or 'textile pressing workshop', but does a more correct term exist? Thanks. |

Asker: This is excellent, thanks. Yes, 'fulling mill' seems to be more commonly used than 'fullery' so I'll go with that.
