Full Description
To the west of the bridge in the centre of the village is the site of a bump mill on the River Sett. The remains of the building are now incorporated in a private house [1984]. In 1851 the mill was run by John Bowden and Isaac Redfern. George Eyre's woollen mill lay nearby to the west and together they formed the last vestiges of the earlier woollen textile industry. (1)
