This former flax mill dates from 1827 according to one website, although the date on the entrance arch is 1874. It is not listed but is in the Holbeck conservation area and there is concern about its deteriorating state. The Hol Beck itself flows in a culvert in front of the building, roughly below the photographer's position. SPM on the gates is a later addition, standing for Selby Plumbers Merchants Ltd, who used the premises at one time. For context, see Image
