Originally we went up Pots n Pans to look for a cave or two but couldnt find them so had a walk o delph to go in Bailey Mill very good afternoon amazing inside heres a bit of info i found on flickr thanks to craig h
An old derelict mill in Saddleworth which I enjoyed exploring. I think there is a stunning image to be had here; I just haven't found it yet!
Bailey Mill was run by Mallalieu's for a long time, but they went into administration in 1996, and came out of administration when they were bought byGledhills; another Delph weaving company. However, in doing so, most of the business was transferred to Valley Mill, just up the road. Bailey Mill remained in use until about January 2000.
Up until recently the mill was in a reasonable state, but due to vandalism, theft and the mill being used (unofficially?) by a shooting club much of the derelict charm has been lost.
this is the bridge from the main mill to the admin building
Thanks for viewing
