Grecian Mills, Bolton
Grecian Mills, Bolton
This is a large complex of former cotton Mills on Lever Street, Bolton. The older brick building in the background is 1845 but there is a 1925 extension to its left with a distinctive architectural style. The engine house projecting towards the photographer is also a more modern extension, presumably replacing an internal engine (almost certainly a beam engine) with a more modern horizontal engine.
