Tulketh Mill from Blackpool Road
Not as pretty as the view from the canal, this is how the mill is more commonly seen from the Blackpool Road railway bridge. (Part of a circular walk around Preston – continues at Image)

Lancaster Canal and Tulketh Mill
John Rennie's canal dates from the last years of the 18th century, while the mill was built in the early years of the 20th. It was one of the last of Preston's cotton mills to close. It's future was secured when it was taken over by the Littlewoods Catalogue Company. Today it a call centre for Carphone Warehouse. The imposing mill chimney one of the few to survive has in fact been lowered twice over the years

Tulketh Mill, Preston
In my opinion this is the best view as it shows the fine chimney and engine house to best advantage. The white scar indicates the position of the demolished boiler house. The mill was opened in 1906 and the engine house contained a massive J & E Wood cross compound of 2000 horsepower with Corliss valve cylinders 29" & 58" bores by 60" stroke. The flywheel was 24' diameter and grooved for 44 cotton driving ropes. The chimney was originally 77 yards but is now shorter.
