Report - Green Vale Mill - near Rochdale - July 2014

[Will Knot]

The Explore.........

Taking advantage of the nice weather, and entertaining young Will, we set off the scenic route to Hollingworth lake to take a peek at the boating. Unfortunately we never made it as more important things came up.............

A Bit of History..........

A little bit of assistance may be required here........ Can't seem to find much or practically anything with regards to the mills history

Seemingly the last occupants of Green Vale Mill were Tygaflor Limited, now part of the Saint-Gobain Group - a designer, manufacturer and distributor of high performance, fluoropolymer coated fabrics and films including SHEERFILL architectural membranes and NORTON fluoropolymer films for architectural applications.

On with the pics..................

I hope you enjoyed the report..........I Will Knot and young Will Knot
