I went to the old mill as part of my photography course at school and found it really interesting.
it's a real shame that some people find it necessary to abuse and destroy buildings in this way.
i'm not completely against graffiti etc. because some of it looks amazing, where as other parts look awful.
the building itself is in awful condition as it has quite obviously been a victim of arson a few times. the floors have various holes in and the ceilings are falling apart.
apart from those factors it's a location which is a prime example of Halifax's rise in the industrial world.

Quarry Bank Mill (also known as Styal Mill) in Styal, Cheshire, England, is one of the best preserved textile factories of the Industrial Revolution. Built in 1784, the cotton mill is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building. Quarry Bank Mill was established by Samuel Greg, and was notable for innovations both in machinery and also in its approach to labour relations, the latter largely as a result of the work of Greg's wife, Hannah Lightbody. The family took a somewhat paternalistic attitude toward the workers, providing medical care for all and limited education to the children, but all laboured roughly 72 hours per week until 1847 when a new law shortened the hours

Quick walk around Marion Old Mill today. I think I will return sometime when I get a little more time to investigate the waterworks a little more. Looked quite interesting.
Another frame from Mills Dockyard however this time a little lighter on the effects, my one regret here is the lack of water in the frame, I think looking back at it I would have preferred to get more of the water into the shot than sky, alas.

Outside of the historic downtown district, the Buchanan Cellers Mill, constructed in 1888, is one of McMinnville's oldest industrial/commercial buildings and one of only a handful of tangible reminders of the City's agricultural beginnings, specifically that a flour-milling business once flourished in McMinnville. Indeed the building is the last remaining, intact flour-mill building within the city limits. The building's status as an anchor of McMinnville's original industrial district has persisted as it now anchors the area (the Granary District) currently recognized for its commitment to locally owned and operated commercial, industrial, and agricultural businesses. As the city's sole remaining flour mill building, the continued presence of this building solidifies a piece of McMinnville's past amidst a changing economy and streetscape. The old flour-mill building looms tall in northeast McMinnville, its presence a comfort and constant. While change is imminent and guaranteed, the preservation of McMinnville's only remaining flour mill building is an essential link between the agricultural past and the emerging future.
The importance of the flour mill cannot be underestimated when considering the success and growth of a community like McMinnville. Since its beginnings as the Barnekoff and Allyn Flouring Mill, the Buchanan Cellers Mill has continued to operate in an agriculturally related industrial and/or commercial capacity while adapting to the needs of a growing and changing community. Although exterior additions and alterations were made, the historic Barnekoff and Allyn's Flouring Mill structure exists today almost in its entirety in the Buchanan Cellers Mill.
Dalton Mills was once the largest textile mill in the region, employing over 2000 workers. It was built by Joseph Craven in 1869, replacing the original mill which was owned by Rachel Leach in the 1780's.
The mill was named Dalton Mills after the manager employed by Rachel Leach, a man called Dalton.
In its heyday between 1869 and 1877 the mill provided jobs for workers all over Keighley and the Worth Valley.
As the textile industry declined, the fortunes of Dalton Mills changed and up until 2004, it had been virtually empty for almost a decade. John Craven, the great-great grandson of Joseph, who had built the mill, eventually chose to sell Dalton Mills to Magna Holdings, to ensure it’s survival.
Part of the renovation of the Clock Tower has included restarting the landmark clock which has not ticked for 25 years. In the mill's heyday, thousands of workers relied on the clock to get to work on time, but the hands had not moved for a quarter of a century. Last year Magna Holdings repaired the clock, and illuminated the faces, so it can display the time to the whole of Dalton Lane again.
This is what's left of a mill that operated in Sheppards Bush in Aurora, ON, until about 100 years ago.
Cley, Norfolk, is a favourite spot for bird watching. We went with an RSPB group, but I concentrated on the marsh landscape and on the village. The old grain mill is now a restaurant.
