Not a canal basin, the nearest canal is the Manchester, Bolton & Bury, which doesn't connect to this. The water is part of a series of reservoirs.

I agree with David. Much of the detail can be found on the recent Ordnance Survey map. The route of Hollins Brook is identical. The large water feature on the right of the shot is the same. The small rectangular pond on the left is present today although the large rectangular pond has disappeared. Today the triangular pond appears to have been partially or fully drained.

The view is taken looking North West.

What sort of mill requires lots of water but not a lot of coal or bulky raw materials (which would need railway transport)
