Royd Mill, Hollinwood
A magnificent Edwardian era spinning mill built in 1907 and photographed in 2006. It has now been demolished and the site has been built on. I can no longer work out where the photographers position was as there has been redevelopment of this area in the meantime. The six figure reference for the mill is correct.

Royd Mill from Armitage Close, Hollinwood
The mill was built in 1907 and has now been replaced by undistinguished housing. I was able to locate this shot accurately by the modern housing development. Oldham Council has now produced a plan for the surviving mill stock but this was gone before that.

Royd Mill, Hollinwood
Built as a cotton spinning mill in 1907 and since demolished and replaced with houses. A shame it was not listed as it was one of the better Edwardian mills in Oldham. I have struggled to locate the photographer positions and not succeeded with them all.
