Formerly owned by Thomas Thompson (flax, jute and rayon spinners). Mill powered by waterwheel, steam engine and diesel engines. It is now being developed as apartments. The chimney has been drastically shortened. The boiler house (single storey building to the right of the chimney) has been gutted and reduced to two walls. The pale pinkish first storey section has been demolished but the engine house immediately below that section survives. The rest is as seen in this picture. Note the leat and waterwheel house.
