Victoria Mill can be seen behind the lock. The mill is a former textile mill. It was built in two phases in 1869 and 1873 to a design by the famous Bolton architect George Woodhouse. The mill was built for William Holland who moved his textile business to Miles Platting from his Adelphi Mill in Salford.
The mill’s distinctive chimney rises within a stair tower and at roof level there is a gallery of windows.
The Victoria Mill continued to operate until the 1960s but once it closed it fell into an almost derelict condition until it was restored in the 1990s. Today it is home to apartments, an adult learning centre, and NHS offices.
