Eagley Mills

Two impressive multi-storey mill blocks have been converted to housing and there is a small stone block on the opposite side of the river that may be part of a third. Then you see a 1920 aerial photo with five major mill blocks and associated chimneys. This is an impressive complex nonetheless and I wish I had seen it before conversion. This faintly reminds me of pictures of some of the US conversions - mainly New England. I spent most of this day looking at mill conversions in Lancashire. The one that wasn't (Edenwood Mill, Stubbins) is likely to be converted in the future.
