The mill shown here is Barnoldswick's oldest, which was originally a water-powered corn mill. The mill dam, which was fed from Butts Beck by a leat, the course of which is still visible in the Butts Gardens, occupied the area shown here. In later years, the dam was emptied and the area it occupied is now used for allotments.
