Wray

Wray

At one time Wray was a local textile centre with silk mills, tanners and coopers, clog and basket makers, taking advantage of the fast flowing waters of the Roeburn and Wenning. The sublime mix of 17th century yeoman's houses with cottages and alleys dating from the 18th century, give this village considerable character, as do the cobbles and corbelled doorways. Visit during the May Bank holiday and find the village inhabited by scarecrows during the annual scarecrow festival.
