This is part of Dewsbury Mills that is the home of Calder Textiles who seem to trade as Atlantic Yarns and card, spin and dye a range of wool and synthetic yarns in various blends. It is nice to see the Yorkshire textile trade is not yet dead. The mill with water tank on the top of the tower is on the other side of the River Calder and is Headfield Mills.
