Albert Mills from Summer Street.
Image: © Chris Allen Taken: 6 Dec 1987
Established 1853 as a woollen mill. Includes 6 storey fireproof mill with 15 bays and internal end engine house - 3 storeys for beam engine. There is an attached boiler house with drying floors over. The front block with gate and dyehouse to left has a datestone stating 1853 but is actually from 1871. There is a small weaving shed at the back against the river. A very nice complex but I don't know its current status. There were also good views from the river side but tree growth might have ruined those.
