Steam powered worsted mill c1870. Originally powered by a beam engine but a new engine house (square structure to left of main block) was built in 1916/17 to house a second hand inverted vertical cross compound engine of 1896. The chimney still stands (looks shortened) but the boilers have gone. Listed II*.
