Although some of the nineteenth century textile mills have found new uses in Bollington and other erstwhile textile towns of the North of England this one has finally reached the end of its viability. Tucked away up the valley of the River Dean its position would have been ideal when it was used as a dyeworks having clean water to hand (don't think about what came out of the mill after being used for dyeing) but now its position militates against any further use.
