Description
Textile mills in the North of England have played a significant role in shaping the region's industrial heritage. With over 650 mills still standing, many are now empty or underused, but others have been successfully renovated and repurposed for various uses. This book celebrates the transformation of these iconic buildings through case studies drawn from extensive interviews with owners, developers, and users. It shares the human stories behind many renovations, highlighting common themes and insights into what determines successful renovation and how further schemes can be developed.
