General notes
A view looking across the mill pond at Queen Street Mill towards the chimney and the engine room. King's Mill can be seen in the distance. Queen Street Mill opened in 1895 and was owned and run by the Queen Street Manufacturing Company, which was a local co-operative. At the time of its closure in 1982 it was the last working steam powered mill in the country. After the closure it was converted into a working museum, which continues to maintain and use 300 of the original Lancashire looms.
