The Forgotten Word: Trewsman - Uncovering the History of Clothworkers
Trewsman is an archaic word that was used in the past to refer to a tailor or a sewer. It is derived from the Old English words "treow" meaning "cloth" and "mann" meaning "man."
In modern times, the word "trewsman" has largely fallen out of use and has been replaced by more contemporary terms such as "tailor" or "seamster." However, it can still be found in some historical texts and contexts where it is used to describe a person who works with cloth or textiles.
