GV II
Flax mill, now factories and workshops. c1825 with later
extensions and alterations. Red brick with slate and tile
roofs and tall brick principal chimney. L-plan extended with
further ranges round yard.
Main ranges 4 storeys, others 2 storeys. Earlier range to
right has 5-window front to East Street, mainly of sashes. On
left end 2 tall recessed blank arches, the lower rising up
through 2 storeys. Behind this range is the principal chimney
and extending to the rear of the site a 13-window range, 23 to
exterior, mainly of wooden cross windows.
This range extended mid C19, continues across the rear of the
site in a similar 16-window range with a 13-window range to
the yard. Across the end of this is a cross-wing, 3 windows
wide x 7 windows, mainly 3-light wood mullion and transom
windows.
Extending forward from this cross wing to East Street are a
series of lower ranges: a 2-storey range of 9 cross-windows
faces the yard with a central doorway on each floor and a
2-storey, 1-bay range has a front to East Street of 7 windows.
INTERIOR: the earlier range to right has cast-iron framing of
cruciform-plan columns with brick vaults and the rear range is
similar but with round columns.
Moses Atkinson, a flax spinner, having leased the pre-existing
mills, bought the site in 1825 and rebuilt. The main existing
ranges appear on the 1847 OS map.
