The archive is owned and managed by the Irish Linen Centre & Lisburn Museum.
This Heritage Lottery funded project “Reviving William Liddell’s Damask Designs” preserves and reveals a unique collection of 1600 photographic glass plates discovered in 2007 during the dismantling of the Ewart-Liddell factory at Donacloney, County Down. The photographs document the design and development work for Liddell’s Damask patterns and represents the labour of a highly skilled workforce of designers, draughtsmen and women and weavers working for the company during the years 1900’s to 1970’s. The project leaders Trish Belford and Barbara Dass using print and weave as their medium have created a contemporary response to the archive.
The collection is now housed at the Irish Linen Centre & Lisburn Museum.
