Spinkwell Mill sits behind train and was for many years one of Dewsbury's landmark buildings. It was founded by the Oldroyd family in 1818 and in its heyday was the largest textile manufacturing mill in the country, employing some 2,500 workers. In 2004 the mill was converted into 100 high class apartments. The 37 in the background is 37682.
