Fieldhouse Mills, Rochdale ? 10
The 1900 mill with tower, seen from Whitworth Road. The mill was home the carpet manufacturers John Bright & Sons. This appears to have been the final major development on the site.

Loading bay of the 1900 building. The extended hoist beam in the left hand arch would have allowed loading and unloading into railway wagons on a siding running alongside the building.

The 1900 multi-storey mill, possibly a finishing area rather than a spinning mill. The apparent pointed distortion of the building is due to the fact that the corner of the building actually makes quite an acute angle!

Little Stars Pre-school based in the old mill building. A shame that the playground has to look so much like an animal enclosure in a zoo.

We were informed by the very helpful security man on site that this had been a stable block. There would have been stables on the ground floor and a hayloft over, hence the need for the goods hoist at the far end. It's a reminder of the extent to which a large manufacturing site like this required the use of horses before the advent of the internal combustion engine, even just to move material around the site, let alone transporting raw materials and finished goods. OS mapping indicates that it was built some time between 1907 and 1939, doubtless at the earlier end of the time range.

The vents on this building are intriguing, although its original purpose is indeterminate.
