Leigh Spinners
Leigh Spinners or Leigh Mill is a Grade II
* double cotton spinning mill in Bedford, Leigh, England.
==History==
A product of the last generation of cotton mill building, Leigh Spinners was designed by Bolton architects Bradshaw, Gass & Hope for the Horrocks Company, and built in two phases. The east section comprising the six-storey mill, boiler house and chimney stack was built in 1913 and the matching west section was completed ten years later. One of the few double mills to be completed, it is one of the most complete still standing in Greater Manchester. Part of the factory is occupied by Leigh Spinners Ltd who have manufactured carpets since1969 and since 2012, synthetic turf products for landscaping and sport.
The building is in poor condition and considered to be at risk by English Heritage. A charity, the Leigh Building Preservation Trust has been formed to restore the steam engine and engine house. In September 2013 the charity was awarded a £75,000 grant to restore the steam engine and repair the engine house by Waste Recycling Environmental Limited, a heritage fund that protects buildings of historical importance.
