This Ashworth and Parker duplex was added in 1988, secondhand from a dyers in Bulwell, Notts. It was apparently greedy and saw little use. It was in a separate engine house to the two Belliss engines. The whole site has now been demolished and new units erected where once a multi-storey mill stood.
