Abstract: |
<summary>Excavation and survey work was carried out on the site of Norbury Mill. The site lay on the projected route of the A6(M) Stockport By-Pass. No evidence was uncovered for the existence of a mill on the site prior to the 18th century. The excavation demonstrated the rapid growth of the mill during the 19th century, with at first an improvement in the water supply followed by an increasing dependence upon steam power. {italon}AIP{italoff} |
