Newtown Mill, Burnley
Newtown Mill, formerly known as Burnley Iron Works and Newtown Steelworks, is located on Queen's Lancashire Way. Burnley Iron Works was a large engineering firm which made more than sixty textile mill engines to power local cotton mills. Amongst the engines produced at the foundry were the Harle Syke engine http://www.sciencemuseum.org.uk/objects/motive_power/1971-78.aspx and the Corliss stationary mill steam engine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmEc1wLCA2U displayed in the London Science Museum.
Although it now bears the name “Newtown Mill”, it is not the historic Newtown Mill whose Grade II-listed chimney remains on the bank of the River Calder.
