Grains Road Shaw
Here we have just left Shaw's built up area and the road narrows considerably to take on a more rural character. This is the point where the first steep hill chevron appears on the OS 1/50,000 map.

Shaw: Grains Road: The 'Morning Star'
Many pubs around here have closed, but some real gems remain, such as the 'Morning Star' on Grains Road, still serving an excellent pint of 'John Willie', (brewed locally at Middleton Junction by J W Lees).

Remains of Dee Mill, Shaw.
The square building just right of centre was the remaining engine house of Dee Mill. This contained the sorry remains of a 1500 hp horizontal Scott & Hodgson steam engine of 1907. This had been preserved in workable condition before the mill was closed and largely demolished. The chimney with its name on it is seen to the right.
Lily Mill is seen to the left.

Wreck of the Dee Mill engine
This was preserved and scheduled but as a result of constructive neglect reached this state, where the only sensible option was demolition. I have some monochrome photographs of it in pristine condition.
