Approaching Clarence Mill. Clarence mill was built in 1862 but it wasn't equipped until 1871. It closed as a cotton mill in 1960 when it was taken over by the Stamford Group.
Huddersfield Narrow Canal

The Huddersfield Narrow Canal opened in 1811. It runs for just under 20 miles from Lock 1E, where it joins the Huddersfield Broad Canal at the rear of the University of Huddersfield campus, to the junction with the Ashton Canal at Whitelands Basin in Ashton-under-Lyne. It crosses the Pennines by means of 74 locks and the Standedge Tunnel.
