Closed as a cotton mill back in the 1980's, New Mill is now a complex of shops, a supermarket and small industrial units. Missing from the photo is the Mill Lodge now a small lake and nature reserve. The post box at the entrance to the shopping centre is painted gold to mark the gold medal won by Sir Bradley Wiggins, who lives nearby. |

The complex has now been demolished, and a shopping arcade is on the site of New Mill Street (the row of 5 terraces end on to the photograph). The lodge is retained, the two houses next to it being a restaurant. The rest of the site, plus some of the surrounding area, is housing, some in the course of construction, some already built. The mill lodge is actually in this photograph, it is just hard to spot. There is a faint reflection of the trees on the far side. |
