A few textiles mills methinks. Elk Mill, Royton built 1926 and powered by a Parsons steam turbine  Diamond Ropeworks, Royton. The steam engine is preserved at Bolton  Nearby Shaw has seen many mills demolished, including Ash Mill  New Hey near Rochdale was home to Ellenroad Ring Mill  but only the engine house complex and chimney survive.Kent Mill, Chadderton was a large mill next to Manor Mill and has now been replaced by a school  Crawford mill, Rochdale was a bit ramshackle when I saw it  Mars Mill at Rochdale  has gone but Marland next door still stands.Also in Rochdale was stately State Mill, alas no more  Atlas Mills in Bolton was a huge complex, replaced with a Morrisons    In Yorkshire there was the rural idyll of Linton Mills that once also generated electricity for the village  It appears that the oldest part of Ramsden Mills near Huddersfield has also gone  and this mill in Bradford is also a casualty  A modern frontage could be seen at Crossley Kossett, Kidderminster  |
