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.
