The part of the building on the right was known as Blockley Mill. After the silk trade ceased, the building was used as a forge making piano frames, and subsequently it was renamed Vulcan Forge and forged other item such as drain gratings. The original building was only two-thirds the height, but was burnt down in the mid-1920s and was rebuilt to the same height as the attached house, which is now known as Milldene.
