Trencherfield Mill, Cotton mill in Wigan, England.
The mill stands next to the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, featuring a substantial four-story brick structure with large windows and industrial architectural elements.
Constructed between 1907 and 1908 by William Woods & Son Ltd, the mill operated through multiple ownership changes until its closure as a textile facility in 1968.
The building represents the industrial heritage of Northwest England, demonstrating the progression from textile manufacturing to modern mixed-use development.
Visitors can explore the preserved 2,500 horsepower steam engine during scheduled demonstration days, accessing the site through guided tours.
The mill houses an operational triple-expansion four-cylinder engine named Rina and Helen, which powers a 26-foot flywheel using 54 ropes for transmission.
