Brunswick Mill, Ancoats, Cotton mill complex in Ancoats, England
Brunswick Mill spans seven stories alongside the Ashton Canal, featuring 35 loading bays and large windows that allowed natural light for textile production.
The mill, constructed in 1840 by David Bellhouse, operated 276 carding machines and 77,000 mule spindles during its peak production in the 1850s.
The mill represents Manchester's industrial textile heritage, standing as a testament to the manufacturing processes that shaped the region's economic development.
The Grade II listed building sits along Bradford Road, with its main entrance positioned through a central archway leading to an internal courtyard.
The mill maintained 35 direct loading points to the canal, allowing boats to transfer materials and products efficiently through Manchester's water network.
