Congleton Rugby Club, Park Street
Although I was concentrating on Congleton's textile past, this pleasing building caught my eye and it was only decent to take its picture.

Park Mill, Congleton
A former silk mill built in 1825 by Charles Townley. Three storeys and 16 bays, brick built with a rendered front. Extensively rebuilt as accommodation in the late twentieth century. Although it has not been spoilt with balconies, you could be forgiven for not realising it was a nearly two hundred year old silk mill,

Victoria Mill, Congleton
The main part of the mill is a brick four storey block dating from 1858. This 13 bay, north-light weaving shed was a later addition. The mill was originally used for silk but is now in multiple occupancy.

Century Mill, Worrall Street, Congleton
This early twentieth century brick weaving shed with north light roof and a two storey preparation and warehouse block is identified as Century Mill but is regarded as part of Lower Park Street Mill. This was originally a silk mill but appears to have been re-used by Nortek Group - manufacturers of industrial and educational furniture.

Spindle Street Mill, Congleton
Brick built silk mill of the mid-19th century. From 1924 used for fustian cutting and now in other use. At this western end it is claimed the engine house partly survives at ground floor level with stone window surrounds. I reckon it the part with three arch-headed windows. The lighting was problematic from this corner.

Brick built silk mill of the mid-19th century. From 1924 used for fustian cutting and now in other use. Apparently the engine and boiler house partly survive at ground floor level with stone window surrounds - I missed that.
