Description
NAME: STRINES MILL
LOCATION: Bottoms
REF: CD 4
GRID REF: 933 213
CLASSIFICATION: C
CONDITION: Mostly used
APPROX DATE OF SITE AND BUILDINGS: Mid 19c. Site earlier
DESCRIPTION/HISTORY: This is probably the site of an earlier water-powered cotton mill, a Strines Mill was recorded in 1794. By 1850 it had been converted to a machinery works. There is a small, two storey stone building with adjoining one storey shed that has been much altered (mid 19c), were also probably connected. The remains of a brick chimney can be seen among the trees above the works. Very little evidence now of its water powered days.
PRESENT USE AND POTENTIAL: The buildings on the site are of quite an early date, but are in poor condition and have been rather crudely repaired and altered. The main part is sub-divided between a garage workshop and a joiner’s premises. The pungent aroma around the site can be traced to a tripe dressing works in one of the adjacent buildings
