Hilden Village, Hilden (March 2016)
New houses under construction on the southern side of Bridge Street. Described by the agent as “A discrete mix of 33 superbly finished townhouses, reminiscent of the Victorian homes that remain in the area, Hilden Village is the gateway to the proposed £100 million redevelopment of the 225 year-old Hilden Linen Mill site, bringing new life to a once thriving area, that will form an integral part of the current Lisburn Canal.” This photograph appears as a matter of record only. I have no connection with any of the parties involved in the development.

Former Barbour's mill, Hilden - March 2016(3)
This area (middle bottom in
Image) is the only part of the premises outside the fence. My thanks to a visitor to the site who told me that this was originally a canteen (known as the “dining room”) and that there were wooden benches outside for the workers to rest at lunch time.
