Cotton spinning mill, now upholstery works. 1844-45, altered and enlarged. Red brick in English grden wall bond (5+1), with sandstone dressings (roof concealed). Two blocks: main range on north-south axis, and smaller block to east of north end of this, linked to it by later additions. The main range is rectangular under a 3-span roof, 4 storeys, in 2 builds, the first of 6:2:6 windows, the centre breaking forwards slightly, with pilastered corners which have massive moulded stone caps, and a parapet with an upstand to the centre. Ground floor to left covered by deep single-storey extension, and 5th bay to right covered by modern turret of corrugated sheet; otherwise, all windows have raised sills and wedge lintels, and replacement 6-pane glazing. 8-window addition to right-hand (north) end, in similar style and materials. Five-window south end wall, with 3 unequal gables above (these rebuilt). Rear similar, and attached to this a former workshop, single storey (but reduced to 5 bays) with round-headed windows (4 still with radiating iron glazing bars, others blocked), and arched cast-iron roof trusses. The east block is an irregular square with a projecting stair-tower and canted right-hand corner, 5 storeys, 1:1:3:1 windows, the tower (to 2nd bay) and the right-hand bay both pilastered like the main range; the 1st bay (which is set back) has the upper half of a large round-headed window with moulded surround (like an engine-house window). INTERIOR of main range: 3 rows of cast-iron columns carrying timber beams; east front of ground floor apparently arcaded.
