Full Description

New Hyde Mill is a two-storey building, with a low square stone chimney and the vestiges of water power. In 1846 it had a 24 hp steam engine, which had been replaced by a 30 hp engine by 1857. The mill was later a wadding mill and is now a shirt factory [1969]. (1) This cotton spinning mill was present by 1821 and is shown on the Tithe Map of 1847. The mill was taken over by Ferodo at the beginning of the 20th century. It has recently been demolished to make way for a housing estate [1999]. (2)
