A very short dictionary entry on the word 'web' from Rees's Cyclopedia. It defines a web as a texture of interwoven threads, the lengthwise warp and the crosswise weft or woof, and notes that weavers and bleachers in Great Britain and Ireland use the term for a piece of linen cloth. It refers readers to the entry on weaving.
