Title

Travis Holme - HPC00198

Description

NAME: TRAVIS HOLME MILL

LOCATION: Rochdale Road, Walsden

REF: CD11

GRID REF: 931 224

CLASSIFICATION: B and C

CONDITION: Fully used

APPROX DATE OF SITE AND BUILDINGS: From late 18C

DESCRIPTION/HISTORY: Here or hereabouts was the site of Travis Holme Mill, possibly an early fulling mill and recorded as working in 1794. Later became a cotton mill, but disused by 1900. The main part of the mill has gone and was located close to the canal. Some foundations can be seen. A very small building remains (built over Walsden Water) that was probably connected. There is a much altered early 19C stone part, with a much later brick built extension. Now known a Lacy Mill.

PRESENT USE AND POTENTIAL: The surviving building is subdivided between an electrical contractor and a joiner. The older part is in a dilapidated condition and looks in need of further repair.

From a Mill Survey carried out in 1984.
