This former cotton mill dates to about 1861 and remained in use until 1962 when it passed into use as Gordon Rigg's garden centre. This business has expanded to occupy the former Bottoms and Jubilee Mills on the opposite side of the road behind the photographer. The chimney has been shortened and some of the mill has been demolished.
