A Guide to the Industrial Archaeology of Wiltshire lists this as Brick Mills while K H Rogers in his monograph on steam power in Trowbridge lists as Brick Factory. Four storey textile mill, obviously in brick and working by 1815. Powered by a 14 horsepower Boulton & Watt steam engine. Rebuilt in 1856 following a fire and still in commercial use in 2012.
