Description

Salford Mill is an early 19th-century building that originally served as a silk mill. It is constructed of red brick and is situated on sloping ground, featuring three storeys at the front and two storeys plus a basement at the rear. The façade has eleven windows, which mostly retain their small-paned iron lights, and are adorned with stone lintels and sills. At the center of the building, there is a small pediment that previously housed a clock. The roof is hipped and covered with slate.
