Goodwins Flint Mill, Middleport
Built sometime in the latter half of the C19th, the Grade II listed Flint Mill on the Trent and Mersey Canal at Port Vale was known to be operated in 1907 by Goodwin's Mill Company. The Mill closed in the 1960's and production was switched to Cheddleton Flint Mill on the Caldon canal. Goodwin's Mill Co supplied ground flint, stone, whiting and other potters' materials to potbanks (the local name for pottery factories). Taken with a 1976 Polaroid SX-70 Land Camera Alpha 1 on Polaroid (TIP) film
