A former cotton weaving shed that retains its magnificent chimney and a preserved steam engine that I missed seeing run by days (the boiler was still warm to the touch). The chimney is 37 metres tall and Grade II Listed. The engine house and its engine are a Scheduled Monument. The single storey weaving shed is just visible to the right.
