LOCATION: Washpit
REF: HU 20
GRID REF: 145 068
CLASSIFICATION: C
CONDITION: Fully used
APPROX DATE OF SITE AND BUILDINGS: Mid-late 19C (site earlier)
DESCRIPTION/HISTORY: A three storey stone built mill with loading bays placed centrally at the front. A woollen mill was recorded at Green Lane, Bottom in 1809, and it was a water powered site. The wheel was probably located in the basement at the western end of the building. Small mill race is visible.
