Pear New Mill, Grade II* listed mill building in Bredbury, England.

Pear New Mill rises six stories high with concrete floors, featuring large windows and a pear-shaped concrete cupola above its water tower.

The mill, completed in 1913 by P.S. Stott after A.H. Stott & Sons' initial work, operated with 137,312 mule spindles for cotton spinning.

This industrial structure represents the final chapter of England's cotton spinning industry, employing 300 workers who processed Egyptian cotton.

The building now functions as a commercial space offering units from 318 to 27,000 square feet, with 24-hour security and extensive parking facilities.

The mill features a Manhattan-type steam engine by George Saxon & Co, which operated through rope drives until its removal in 1962.
