Steam engine, London Road Mill, Macclesfield
The incomplete remains of a vertical single cylinder steam engine. This is possibly of 1840s vintage and may have been out of use since 1894. It was quite a surprise to discover yet another incomplete vertical engine.

Engine house, London Road Mill, Macclesfield
This decrepit lean-to contained the incomplete remains of the vertical steam engine that powered this former silk mill. The building has now been replaced by a modern look-alike that still contains the remains of the engine.

Derelict site awaiting housing development in Macclesfield, Cheshire
Seen by looking north-west from the Macclesfield Canal, this area awaiting housing development is off Gunco Lane.
The former R H Stevens Transport Ltd haulage site has planning permission for 88 homes.
The dark church clock tower on the skyline is that of the little used Christ Church in Great King Street.
Examining newer aerial images, it seems that the building by the trees
on the left, which appears to be undergoing modernisation in 2014, did not progress to be part of the final development.
