Ellenroad Mill, Industrial heritage site in Newhey, England
The Ellenroad Ring Mill features a preserved stationary steam engine with twin tandem compound units named Victoria and Alexandra, generating 3000 horsepower.
Constructed in 1890 as a cotton spinning mill, the five-story brick building underwent reconstruction after a fire in 1916 and transitioned to ring spinning methods.
The mill represents the technological evolution of textile manufacturing, from traditional mule spinning to advanced ring spinning processes in Lancashire's industrial development.
The Ellenroad Trust maintains the engine house, operating monthly steam demonstrations for visitors to experience historical industrial machinery in action.
The steam engine at Ellenroad Mill remains the largest working example of its type, with multiple ropes around the flywheel driving line shafts across floors.
