Drummond's Mill
Much earlier than Betty's picture http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/408688 and darker and more satanic. I liked the look of it, so took its picture. Fortunately Betty has done the ID for me. It was an unexceptional December day.
Anybody who wants a superb book of photos of the Yorkshire woollen industry should seek out a copy of "Through The Mill" by Ian Beesley (1987). I saw the original exhibition at National Museum of Photography, Film and Television, Bradford.

Site of Drummond's Mill, Lumb Lane, Manningham
Drummond's Mill was one of the larger and better known textile mills of the many in Bradford. My late mother-in-law even worked here once upon a time. According to the list description (grade 2, entry 1133006) it was "built in 1861 to the designs of Lockwood and Mawson. A more sober application of Italianate detail than that first introduced by the architects for the Saltaire Mills. [A] large, 5 storey rectangular spinning mill of sandstone 'brick' with ashlar dressings."
Although it had ceased to be used as a mill some years earlier, it was finally destroyed by fire on 28 January 2016. Only the chimney and some of the administration offices remain. The site has now been cleared and will no doubt be redeveloped.
The clearance allows a rare glimpse of the rear of St Mary Magdalene's church Image; according to its list description, "The east end was also windowless as it backed on to a nearby factory, the owners of which were Methodists and did not wish their employees to be distracted." There's no-one to be distracted now!
