Apex Mill, Blackburn - Feb 2013

Visited with Scrappy

Spot of History:
Also known as the Randal Street Works, it was originally a reed and heald-making business, started by James Haydock in the 1870s. It continued in this use until 1933.
Later uses included warehousing, animal foodstuff production and a printing works.

At the time, the red-brick Victorian Mill was described as being in a ‘poor state of repair’.
In 2010, planning permission was granted to the Adhan Group of companies to develop the site.
The application sought to demolish the existing building and replace it with nine retail units with two community function halls on the first floor of the new building.
