The former Brookfield Mill, on the Crumlin Road, built in 1850 and extended twice, is being converted to social housing. The occupants were variously known as the Brookfield Linen Co and the Brookfield Spinning Co Ltd. The date of closure seems to have been 1962 – a time when the linen industry was starting to contract. Last seen in August 2009 Image
