Remains of Wren Nest Mills
Image: © Chris Allen Taken: 15 Mar 2009
Until recently there were two large multistorey blocks and a round brick chimney. Unfortunately, fire and developers have left us with this single five storey gritstone block with an internal double beam engine house at the far end. Ironically, it had only just been converted in 2007 when it was damaged by fire. It appears that the second restoration is about complete. As conversion go it's quite nice but a little sterile.
