Small substation, Mill Hill Lane
An unusually small installation, with no protective building, though the size of the enclosure suggests that there may have been more substantial plant here at one time.

Construction on Mill Hill Lane
Clearly not a new property but I couldn't decide whether it was being demolished or just comprehensively refurbished including re-roofing.

Mill Hill Lane bridge
The bridge crosses a small brook, known locally as Dingle Brook though on the OS map it is shown as 'mill stream' near this point (the old mill is to the right of the photographer). According to the website romanroads.org, "The bridge and lane at Sandbach Mill preserve the Roman line so the river crossing point here is almost 2000 years old." A public footpath leaves the road to the east of the bridge.

Wheelock Rail Trail
The trail follows the route of the former Sandbach to Kidsgrove railway (part of the North Staffordshire Railway network). This is the view looking westwards from the bridge seen in Image - the bridge itself is on the gridline which is why the two photos are in different squares.

Sluice of Sandbach Mill
The sluice gate is left in the raised position, keeping the water level in the former mill pond low, but it is clear that the water wheel would only have had a modest head of water. This is the line of the main stream, not the mill race which was further to the southeast.
