Rachel Beatrice Kay-Shuttleworth MBE (17th February 1886 - 1967)
Rachel was the third daughter of Ughtred Kay-Shuttleworth, 1st Baron Shuttleworth and his wife Blanche, Lady Shuttleworth. Rachel was a teacher, embroiderer, lace maker, philanthropist and social activist who began collecting textile and craft items as early as 1912 to help with her teaching. Her collection went on to become the Gawthorpe Textiles Collection, which is still housed at Gawthorpe Hall and managed by an independent charitable trust.
