Hazelbank Mill, located beside the River Bann, was listed as a bleach mill in the first OS Maps. In the Griffith Maps it was a spinning mill. By 1878 a weaving mill had been added although the mill was at that time disused. Today, the mill houses a hydroelectric plant and a heat exchanger (neither of them are in this building though).
