Title A name given to the resource Harry Pogson collection Subject The topic of the resource In the 1980s much of the industrial heritage of the South Pennine area was being changed or in some cases lost. Pennine Heritage commissioned a survey of the condition of mills in the area. Photographs were taken when the survey was carried out, and the survey results have been added to those images in this collection. Still Image A static visual representation. Examples include paintings, drawings, graphic designs, plans and maps. Recommended best practice is to assign the type Text to images of textual materials.

Title A name given to the resource Stones Mill, Bar Lane, Rishworth - HPC00409 Subject The topic of the resource Cobbles, Rishworth, Stones Mill, tower Description An account of the resource NAME: STONES MILL LOCATION: Quarter mile SW of Slitheroe Bridge REF: RY 10 GRID REF: 033 187 CONDITION: Mostly empty CLASSIFICATION: C APPROX DATE OF SITE AND BUILDINGS: Late 19C (site earlier) DESCRIPTION/HISTORY: A large, late Victorian mill that stands forgotten a few hundred yards above the main A672 road on the Upper Ryburn. It consists of two four storey stone buildings, each of considerable size and with square, ornamental staircase towers. These buildings date from the early 1880’s when the mill was rebuilt after a fire. The first mill to be erected on the site was a small cotton factory around 1800, which was enlarged in 1855. The present engine house is derelict and the dam filled in. Possible remains of a circular chimney by the road. PRESENT USE AND POTENTIAL: One of the buildings is partly used for producing animal feed, but the majority of the site is empty, verging on dereliction. A great deal of renovation would be needed to restore the site, and the size of the buildings is a disadvantage. However, it is a striking remnant of the prosperity of the 19C textile industry, and should merit listing to prevent demolition and possibly encourage some refurbishment. RY10 Photo taken c1985.
