Description

Dale Mill and its detached chimney are former workshops that date back to the early 19th century. The building is constructed from coursed squared rubble gritstone and features a wide stone stack on the south gable, along with hipped stone slated roofs. It has an 'L' shaped plan, with a short projecting wing on the east side. The west elevation rises three storeys and consists of seven bays, each fitted with sash windows in plain stone frames. The projecting wing on the east side includes a semi-circular headed opening on the first floor. Additionally, there is a tapering square stone chimney located to the east of the projecting wing. The Cocker family, who owned the wire mill, were also involved in the early development of crucible steel making in Sheffield, using the steel for wire drawing.
