The mills of John L Brierley and once home to a magnificent pusher compounded beam engine. The Turnbridge area was also home to Schofield & Taylor - engineers who made stationary steam engines for the local textile mills. The tall beam engine house is seen behind the lifting bridge near the base of the chimney. The lifting bridge is over the Huddersfield Broad Canal (or Ramsden's Canal).
