Princess Anne Helps Celebrate Cashmere Makers’ 250th Anniversary

While on a visit to Yorkshire, the Princess Royal has helped to mark the 250th anniversary of Joshua Ellis & Co, one of the leading companies in Britain that produces handcrafted cashmere.

Princess Anne met with staff who work in the company’s factory, learning about their processes and what products they make from cashmere and woollen cloth. The business first began production in 1767.

The Princess is President of the UK Fashion and Textile Association.
