Site of mill, Benn Lane, Longwood
Hard now to believe that this scene was once tall buildings; see Image for the end of that era. Similar sites nearby have been redeveloped with town houses.

Derelict woollen mill, Longwood, near Huddersfield
This was Sunnybank Mill, owned by C. and J. Hirst. The road which is bridged over by the building is the bottom end of Grove Street: and the road coming down from the left at the extreme left end of the mill is Benn Lane. It appears that the mill was listed, but the arched part collapsed spontaneously so the whole structure was demolished. I am indebted to Chris Allen for this information.
Further information from Conrad Diamond informs me that the collapse was actually caused by a skip-wagon hitting the arch.

Sunnybank Mills hit the dust.
A large complex of woollen mills in Longwood was being demolished on a less than sparkling day. I was able to walk right through the middle of the demolition site - try that in 2008. The chimney looks a little wonky. The dead straight chimney in the distance is Joseph Hoyle's Prospect Mills. That is now also gone. Humphrey Bolton has photographed this area in the post-mill era.

The demolition of Sunnybank Mills, Longwood
This is from practically the same spot as one of Humphrey Bolton's picturesImage The area to the left is houses and to the right there's woodland. This was one of many mills that filled the road out from Milnsbridge.

Mill building, Dale Street, Longwood
The Longwood valley had a long string of mill buildings of which few are still in use, this one having been adapted for the sale of 'white goods'.
