When the business closed in Skipton, most of the premises were demolished and houses built on the site. Brindley Mill was converted into apartments. Constructed of coursed rubble stone under a stone flag roof. Listed, grade II, with details at: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1131848
Skipton is a market town in North Yorkshire, some 27 miles northwest of Leeds. On the southern edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, it is now an important tourist destination. The town expanded after the construction of Skipton Castle in the 11th century. The Leeds and Liverpool Canal runs through the town and the River Aire flows just to the southwest. The name Skipton means 'sheep-town'.
