The revised Buildings of England volume covering Manchester remarks that "nothing is left to tell of the village [Blackley] except a couple of pubs and a small mill on the corner of Domett Street." Assuming this to be the aforementioned mill, yet another trace has now gone because it was pulled down some time in 2021-22. No great architectural loss, but it's a pity that no imaginative way was found of incorporating it into the housing development which will no doubt replace it. (Ironically something that has been achieved in central Manchester and other city centres.)
