Eagley Mills - Bridge Mill
The oldest building in this complex, this was built around 1780 as a water powered textile mill. It was later used as a canteen for the larger mills on the opposite side of the Eagley Brook. It is Listed Grade II and was converted to cottages in 2003. This idyllic setting was once a major hive of industry.

Brook and Bridge Mills
When the site was at its height, there was another mill to the right of Brook Mill (left) which would have completely obscured Bridge Mill in the background; the modern car park site was also completely built over.
