Priestroyd Mill, Huddersfield
There is an excellent photograph of this mill in Satanic Mills - Industrial Architecture in the Pennines, published by SAVE Britain's Heritage (not dated but c1980 at a guess) that shows a tall corner tower. This was truncated following a fire in 1977. There are also two chimneys visible and they have also gone. I would recommend Satanic Mills and Through the Mill as two books for those interested in Yorkshire (and Lancashire) textiles.
The tower has now been rebuilt - see Image

Huddersfield Narrow Canal, east of Queen Street South
When the canal was restored in the late 1990s, it had to be tunnelled under the mill beyond the bridge. The framework of girders ensures that the deep piling does not move sideways.
