Gilnow Mill, Bolton
An integrated cotton weaving and spinning mill from the late 1850s. This shows the engine house of 1856 that held a double beam engine by Musgraves of Bolton. This was gear drive to both mill and shed. The architecture is italianate.
It's a major feature of the square.

This has been substantially modified over the years. Once the main steam engine ceased to be used, the boiler capacity would have been reduced to what was necessary to provide heating throughout the mill, and other use made of parts of the building. The boilers would probably have been in the left hand part of the building with the round-topped windows; the right hand side with the white panels was the coal bunker area.

Cast iron gatepost protector. A common feature used to protect stone gateposts from the axles of horse drawn carts. Obviously there was little confidence in the skill of the carters to get through entrances!
