Bailey Mill, Delph

The aerial view shows the chimney to be still standing but the large block with the water tower was destroyed by an arson attack in 2016. The chimney is interesting because the original stone stack appears to have been raised with a new brick section above the original stone cap. Chimneys of this type are getting rarer.
