House with Royal Mail letter box, Bank View.Mill Bank
The window is larger than that of the other house of the pair (to the left), and might have been a shop window. The letter box suggests a post office, and the 1978 1:2500 map confirms this. Later maps show that the post office moved to a building further to the east.

Date stone on St Mary's Primary School, Mill Bank
The security fencing makes it impossible to get a clear view of the inscription on the stone, but my interpretation is: "St Mary's / Church Schools / Deo. Ecclesiæ Pauperibus / A.D. 1850". The latter word suggests to me that the school was founded to educate the children of the poor.

Mill Bank, near Sowerby Bridge, Yorkshire
This fine photograph shows the former handloom weaving village of Mill Bank in an almost unspoiled state. At one time there were many such villages in the Pennines. Sadly, since this photograph, a degree of gentrification has set in, as greedy eyes from Manchester and Leeds have spied money-making possibilities here.

Mill Bank Road, Mill Bank
Here the traffic is slowed by discreet strips of stone setts, much better than the vicious humps found elsewhere.
