Lymm Slitting Mill
Restored remains of a "slitting mill", used to produce narrow strips of metal, used in (e.g.) nailmaking. Opened by 1751, it was abandoned by 1825 and excavated by industrial archaeologists in the 1970s and again in 2005. Described as "the best surviving example of a slitting mill in the country".

Site of Lymm Station
Closed to passengers in 1962, the railway continued as a freight line until 1985. Now a rails to trails conversion giving a traffic free route between Warrington and Altrincham.
The closure was probably precipitated by the need to renovate the Latchford Viaduct. At that time one of the Stupid's big ideas was an ideological loathing of railways. Even the Forth Bridge (same engineers, Arrols) was considered for closure.
