Former cotton spinning mill (later used for the manufacture of red tape,
and at time of inspection in April 1990 used for storage), with
manager's house attached. Built 1797 for Samuel Unwin. Coursed
gritstone rubble; Welsh Slate roof. Some later brick ancillary
buildings. Plan: the wheel appears to have been set transversely
partly within the mill building and contained within stone cross walls
(which are not continued above ground level) with associated gear placed
within low outshuts. Mill: 3 storeys, 16 window range almost identical
to both sides, all windows under flat lintels with stone sills, and 30-
pane cast iron window frames with small central opening. Left-hand
stone end stack (for heating) with a tall brick end stack to right
abutting the end wall (for engine house, dismantled, which replaced the
water-powered system in later C19). Later skylight. Manager's house
attached to left: 2½ storeys, 4 window range. Ground-floor with 2
tripartite sash windows and doorway (with rectangular overlight) in
stone surrounds, the latter with panelled door. Larger entrance to
right (opposed to rear) under elliptical arch. 1st floor with 4 widows,
2 tripartite, all with sashes. Upper half-storey with flat headed sash
windows. Rear similar, but more of the sashes replaced. Interior: of
mill, intact (except for machinery); power rise to all floors except
attic. King post roof with angle struts. House, modest, with some
contemporary features.
