07 ALDER

In 1905 the Alder Spinning Company commenced building its mill in Leigh to the design of Stott & Sons. The mill entrance, yard and offices are all that survive, still proudly declaring the mill name and the 1907 date of completion. The gates and fencing to the yard are of similar quality to the brickwork.

 

Details and images of the mill can be found here.
