Abstract:
The buildings recorded as part of the Level 1 Historic Building Recording relate to later phases of development within the mill and are considered to be of some very limited significance as remnants of industrial architecture. The Georgian Mill was founded in 1785 as one of the earliest water powered silk mills to be established in Macclesfield. The mill was one of the earliest mills to convert to steam power when an engine was installed to supplement the water wheel in the 1790s. These parts of the mill are of limited historic and architectural significance. The mill was formerly Grade II Listed, its significance lying in it being the only surviving water powered silk mill in Macclesfield. The earliest parts of the Georgian Mill were those which faced on to Mill Lane (now Park Green), these were destroyed by two successive fire in 1976 and 2011. This fire resulted in the complete destruction of the earliest parts of the mill (those which contributed to its significance) and the building was thus de-listed.
