Barrow Bridge [Home] [Bolton] [Index] [Gallery] [Webcam] [Updated] [Walk] [Drive] [Links] Barrow Bridge In the 1820&#39;s at Barrow Bridge, an industrial village was started by Thomas Bazley and Robert Gardner. By 1835 there was a cotton spinning and doubling mill. in 1836 there was a co operative shop managed by a committee of workmen from the mills. Wages were paid on Friday evenings and Saturday half-day closing was applied in the mills to permit shopping by the mill workers wives. It turned into a self contained economic, social and educational community, and was visited by Benjamin Disraeli in 1840, who incorporated into his novel &quot;Coningsby&quot;, under the name &quot;Millbank&quot;. On October 11th 1851 the Prince Consort visited the village. The mill closed in 1877, the mill demolished, but many of the cottages remain in this beauty spot, along with the mills&#39; chimney. 116k JPEG March 1996 This shot is taken in a direction which would have been facing the mill. The cottages remain, but the mill is long demolished. I am grateful to John Stephenson, a former resident for the following: The mill closed in the 1847, but it was not demolished immediately. It survived in an increasing state of disrepair until at least 1905. The building between the two mills is the engine house which would have held the engine to drive both mills. The keystone of the entrance arch of this building can now be found in the centre of the bus terminus. The chimney shown in the web site as being part of the mill is too far away from the engines it would have served. It actually served a bleach works situated off Smithills Croft Road. From the chimney, go down Smithills Croft Road, down the hill until the sharp right hand bend at the bottom and turn right following the road. The bleach works occupied the site
