Brookhouse Mills, Preston
This is a large former cotton mill complex that is still in use by an upholstery firm. The multi-storey block here is one end of Mills 1 & 2 of 1844. In front is a single storey north light shed that was probably a weaving shed. The gutter running along the front of this shed indicates the position of the valleys of the north light roof.

Brookhouse Mills, Preston - engine house
This is the beam engine house window in the 1858 block of this cotton mill complex. This contained a single cylinder beam engine that was later pusher compounded. Beam engine houses are usually very recognisable by the tall arched windows that differ from the other windows in a mill.
