Garages at the back of Eustace Street
A trick of perspective makes it appear as if the garages have pitched roofs and chimneys, but these in fact belong to houses on Cedar Crescent.

Manor Mill, Chadderton - chimney
This magnificent and defunct chimney was undergoing some essential maintenance. It is one of the few intact chimneys left in the Oldham area and is associated with a marvellous Edwardian mill.

The circular red brick chimney that stands in the west side of the site still retains its oversailer, a rarity among the remaining mill chimneys in the area. viewed from the main gate entrance.

Manor Mill, Chadderton
This is one of the best chimneys in Oldham. Royd mill is another good one.
The stone wall is actually the dam for the lodge, as the lands slopes away and a level surface is needed for water. Oldham Council were apparently thinking about acquiring the mill as a heritage project but it's no surprise that it never happened.

Falcon Mill, Victoria Street, Chadderton
This is my third visit to this area and I have only just learnt that the big single storey building is an unusual (for Oldham) example of a weaving shed among the big spinning mills. Designed by P S Stott in 1885 for the Oldham Velvet Manufacturing Co. In 1915 it had 802 looms powered by an Urmson & Thompson engine.
Even though I took this shot for Falcon and have labelled it as such, my eye is drawn to the chimney and water tower of the more impressive Manor Mill.

Manor Mill, Chadderton
Photographed from public open space in Busk. I hope the steeple jack work is restorative not destructive. The mill is listed Grade II but has already lost its lodge.

Manor and Kent Mills, Chadderton
The far mill has gone. The copper dome on Manor is showing storm damage but it was subsequently repaired. You can appreciate what a fine chimney Manor has but the satellite suggests that the boiler house has gone and the chimney is isolated. The lodge has also been filled in and is a lorry parking area.

Manor mill, Chadderton
Cranked out to 28mm and against the light. However, the beautifully intact chimney, engine house and water/stair tower with copper clad dome are the defining features of this mill and can be seen. G Stott, another of the Stott dynasty, was the architect.

Kent has gone. The wall on the right is probably Falcon Mills.
