Subject: mange-spot
Пожалуйста, помогите перевести.
mange-spot
Слово встречается в следующем контексте:
Речь идет о замках. Предложение такое: Perhaps the place has been redecorated; but I remember that when, as a boy, I went round Windsor Castle, the dark blue velvet on the chairs in what I suppose was the Chapter Room of the Knights of the Garter had been so much worn by a long succession of august posteriors that there were mange-spots in the pile and the stringy warp of the material showed through in naked indecency.
Заранее спасибо
