Duke Street Mill, Rochdale

Image: © Alan Murray-Rust Taken: 8 Apr 2022

Mid to late 19th century, with stone facades to Queen Street and Duke street, although the principal build material is brick. The grey building is the former Mount Pleasant Inn. Between it and the main mill is the engine house for the mill, with a blocked tall round-headed window. This would probably have housed a beam engine.
