Detailed Solution

London was known as a “finishing centre”. The countryside and the town had developed a close relationship. Though the merchants' business was based in the towns, the work used to be done mostly in the countryside. For example,England's clothier merchants purchased wool from a stapler who was from the countryside. Then they carried the wool to the spinner for yarn ( thread) formation, and further to weavers and fullers for subsequent stages. Finally, send the clothes to the dyers, and they are all the countryside workforce. Before the export of cloth was sold in the international market, finishing was done in London, a well-established town. The town was also known as a finishing centre.
