According to Roger Kidd - This stone building dates from 1853 and has been extended several times since. It was built, like the other mills in Bollington, to spin cotton. The raw cotton was brought from Liverpool docks up the River Irwell to Manchester then along the Rochdale, Ashton, Peak Forest and Macclesfield canals.
