Visited with @albino jay and @GK-WAX and thanks again to jay for doing the driving and I also stole your history mate because I couldn’t find any hope you don’t mind. We was passing by the mill on our way home so popped in for a look. And glad we did I like these old mills. And the demo team were already on site so don’t know how long it has left to stand. So here’s the history and pics..

Steam-powered worsted-spinning mill built around 1850 on Black Brook.

Owners and tenants of the mills have included
* James Nutton & Company [1863]
* John Horsfall & Sons Limited [1896]
* F. K. Adcock & Company [1936]
Part of the Mills are still standing though no longer used.
The mill had a 170 ft tall chimney which was struck by lightning in 1967. The chimney was reduced in height – to avoid further strikes – and was finally demolished in March/April 1992

The majority of the Mills were demolished in 2017.

The first shot and the next to last shot have GREAT views. Always like to see mills with things left behind like the sewing machine and the scales. Good job on these Lavino!
