Sunny Bank Mills Heritage Open Day.

Sunny Bank Mills Heritage Open Day.

This event took place just yards from my home ( Not Mark's!) on the heritage open weekend. The place was formally introduced to the visitor but created a very special occasion for local former mill-workers who were able to re-enter the site after many years.  The mill reminds me very much of a scaled down version of Jonathan Silver's Salt's Mill in its early years, and the owner's, who are the seventh generation of the founder, are keen to follow this amalgam of Industry, the Arts, Commerce, and Heritage. An excellent Art Exhibition filled one superbly restored area, and many folk left feeling that it would be great to be involved with all the positivity and ambition on parade.
