II
Chimney. Dated 1863. Brick. Octagonal, tapering, and with moulded cap. The chimney was part of the power system of the nearby Halliwell Bleach Works. The works were founded by Peter Ainsworth in 1739, and acquired a reputation in the early C19 for the early use of chlorine gas in the bleaching process, under the direction of Richard Ainsworth. The chimney is now the principal surviving relic of the bleach works. (Longworth J: The Cotton Mills of Bolton: Bolton: 1987-: 103-104).
