Cross Street Mill
Near the centre of Leek.
The Stone plaque reads: Brough Nicholson & Hall Est. 1815. Though this building I would say is from about 30 to 70 years later than that. (See also the grid square discussion.)
The to let (sic) sign offers "Range of versatile self contained office/studio units with secure parking".

This is one of the more decorative of the Leek silk mills, and includes this prominent panel with the name 'Brough, Nicholson and Hall', who were one of the larger silk firms. Building designed by Sugden & Son, around 1900. Grade II listed.

Closed corner shop
One wonders what "The Silk Ball" sign refers to, was it called that as an off-licence?

Crossroads with three shops (3)
The crossroads of Portland Street and Fountain Street still has two corner shops, with a third only recently converted. A rare sight these days.
Number three with decorating still being carried out inside this looks like it has only recently been converted from a shop.
