The
Tools and Trades History Society (TATHS) was founded in 1983 to further
the knowledge and understanding of hand tools and the trades and people
that used them. The tools and equipment of historic trades are now often the only surviving evidence of what were once common everyday activities. The Society seeks to preserve these artifacts and to investigate, record and interpret the past and present performance of trades. |
