Broadstone Mill
Broadstone Mill
Broadstone Mill, on Broadstone Road in Reddish was a double cotton spinning mill on the northern bank of the Stockport Branch Canal. The mills were started in 1903 and completed in 1907. They closed in 1957, and the southern mill and engine houses were demolished in 1965. The northern block is now part of the Houldsworth Village development. It is used as a centre for small businesses, and a shopping outlet.
