Mill no.1, Eckersley Mills
Built in 1880 to a design by A H Stott and Sons of Oldham, Listed Grade II. It was the first of the modern ring spinning mills on the site. Currently under refurbishment as retail and business premises, as the message on the hoarding indicates. In the foreground some of the more recent industrial development which has replaced earlier weaving sheds.
Part of the large spinning and weaving complex developed by the Eckersley family in the late 19th and early 20th century. The three extant mills replaced earlier mills and weaving sheds from the first half of the 19th century. Eckersleys’ colossal works were, at the height of production in the 1920s, one of the largest integrated textile manufactories in the country, operating more than 250,000 spindles and 1,650 looms in 6 spinning and 2 weaving mills.

The Orwell
This pub was created out of a refurbished warehouse in the early 1980s and has fared better than the visitor centre next door which is now closed. Trencherfield Mill can just be seen peeping over the roof.
