Howe Bridge Mills, Atherton
Howe Bridge Mills, Atherton
A large complex of cotton spinning mills developed from the 1870s to the 1920s and remaining in textile production until 1999. Also on site is Unit 1 from 1978 that was probably the only new building for cotton spinning since the 1920s but not distinguishable from other modern industrial buildings.
