Silk throwing mill now in use as offices, and pair of houses with weavers' garrets. c1840, with C20 alterations. Brick with Welsh slate roof. 3 storeys, 6-window range. Domestic in scale and detail. EXTERIOR: segmentally-arched entry to rear courtyard to left, 6-panelled door with radial fanlight to right, and 4 windows between them. Windows on each floor have wood mullions and transoms, with upper opening vents, and flat-arched gauged brick heads. Small upper panes in lower windows. Moulded wood eaves. Similar pattern of fenestration to rear elevation, with windows of 3 and 9 lights on upper floors, blocked openings (perhaps for loading?) on ground floor. INTERIOR: internal structure based on timber beams, with queen strut and king post roof. The mill building continues as the attic storey of Nos 5 & 7 St George's Street, which are single-unit, double-pile planned houses, forming a single build with the mill. Some original fenestration survives in No.5, but is renewed in original openings in No.7. The attic storeys have long workshop lights to the rear, and mullioned and transomed windows similar to those in the rest of the mill building to the front.
