Pin Mill, Charfield

Image: © Chris Allen Taken: 27 Oct 2013

The tall block is an 1825 steam mill with integral engine house and lean to boiler house. The nearer low buildings conceal an attached north light shed on an earlier tenterfield. The front of a Lancashire boiler has been preserved and can be seen from the road. This was originally a textile mill but later converted to make pins. It is now used by an engineering firm.
